Cairnholy 2
Date Added: 26th Sep 2010
Site Type: Chambered Cairn
Country: Scotland (Dumfries and Galloway)
Visited: Yes on 17th Aug 2010

Cairnholy 2 submitted by AngieLake on 17th Aug 2010. It seems sacrilegious to allow a barn of that size to be erected so close to this wonderful monument, but the farmer must have had good reason, and no doubt, permission! Shame though...

Country: Scotland (Argyll)
Visited: Yes on 12th Nov 2005

Temple Wood S submitted by AngieLake on 12th Nov 2005. Temple Wood on a sunny day in 2002. The central cist below, and all the stone arrangements immediately around it looked too neat, somehow. Just part of an amazing area of megalithic sites running SSW/NNE through the Kilmartin Glen in Argyll.

Dunadd Fort submitted by AngieLake on 4th Sep 2006. Dunadd hill fort has a natural entrance which must have been quite easy to seal off and defend. Looking through it from the first level.

Visited: Yes on 25th Sep 2008

Dunchraigaig Cairn submitted by AngieLake on 25th Sep 2008. Walked past this one on the way to Ballymeanoch monuments in 2002. Maybe it suffers from lack of interest because of visitors' urge to see the other site?

Aberlemno
Date Added: 26th Sep 2010
Site Type: Standing Stones
Country: Scotland (Angus)
Visited: Yes on 2nd Nov 2004

Aberlemno submitted by AngieLake on 2nd Nov 2004. The reverse (south side) of my favourite Pictish stone at Aberlemno seemed to have cup-marks carved in the lower part of it. This shot taken 5th July 2001.
This is one of the finest Class I Pictish stones. It is of sandstone and stands on the roadside to the north of the church. The design shows a snake, double-disc and Z-rod with a mirror and comb below

Grange (Co. Limerick)
Date Added: 26th Sep 2010
Site Type: Stone Circle
Country: Ireland (Republic of) (Co. Limerick)
Visited: Yes on 30th Sep 2007

Grange (Co. Limerick) submitted by AngieLake on 30th Sep 2007. A view along the entrance passage to Grange (also known as Lios) Circle in Limerick, Southern Ireland. At Summer Solstice the sun shines along this passage, into the centre of the circle, which is the 'largest and finest in Ireland'.
You can see the 'V' notch in the stones on the opposite side of the circle, which could have framed the setting sun on Winter Solstice.

Lough Gur E
Date Added: 26th Sep 2010
Site Type: Multiple Stone Rows / Avenue
Country: Ireland (Republic of) (Co. Limerick)
Visited: Yes on 15th Mar 2008
Lough Gur E submitted by AngieLake on 15th Mar 2008. This site, taken from camcorder footage from the field gate, was just across the road, to the right of the farmhouse when viewed from Grange circle. Therefore, it must have been NW. The farmer showed me the site but I didn't go into the field to read the sign by the stones, and because it was 7 years ago, I don't recall what the farmer said about it!

Derreenataggart
Date Added: 26th Sep 2010
Site Type: Stone Circle
Country: Ireland (Republic of) (Co. Cork)
Visited: Yes on 16th Sep 2004

Derreenataggart submitted by AngieLake on 16th Sep 2004. Here's another view of the circle near Castletownbere, on the Beara Peninsula in West Cork. The spelling on the brown pointer notice board at the site was 'Derrintaggart West', but in the Discovery Map series it is referred to as Derreenataggart. It is a beautiful site that I hope to return to one day: one of the hundreds of megalithic sites that litter the Beara Peninsula.
