Burial Chamber (Dolmen) in Co. Wicklow

1.2 km W by N of Enniskerry, close to a farm lane running N from the road to Glencree, this tomb is picturesquely sited under a small tree. It may be a large megalithic kist, with a capstone 1.6 metres long supported by 2 long slabs. The two end slabs have been displaced.

New housing being built in this area means that the grave is not accessible. The farm lane is blocked off, and although we walked along part of it we could not get near enough to see the stones.
