At first glance as it's only half there, I called this one Shronebirrane semi-circle.
It's unusual inasmuch as it's in the valley-bottom, surrounded by mountains. I felt it had a very forlorn air. Th...

This is a superb site as it's run by the family who own the land that the Tomb is on. The visitor centre is excellent for its talks and information. A shortish walk takes you to the Burnt Mound which ...

There was no public access when I visited and none of the images we have seem to be taken close to these stones. They are easily visible from the road. |
