Dromroe
Date Added: 18th May 2015
Site Type: Stone Circle
Country: Ireland (Republic of) (Co. Kerry)
Visited: Would like to visit
Dromroe submitted by ladrin on 14th May 2015. I think that public access is possible. Leave the car where the small pictograph of the Beara tourist trail is. Follow the path about 10 min. After the third or fourth ledder (anyway when you get to the large open pasture), leave the trail to the left.

Roughting Linn Hillfort submitted by TimPrevett on 18th May 2010. These ramparts defining an Iron Age promontory fort are very easy to find - just off the track leading up to Goatscrag Hill, and near the more visited Neolithic Rock Art - from where they are clearly visible. 10/04/10

Log Text: What makes us think that this is a hillfort?
I visited in the 3rd week of June when the vegetation was coming on strong, but I walked up, down and along four ditches and walls all parallel-ish and on the west side only. What's "hillfort" about such a structure? Are there walls / ditches on the N, S or E sides?
The ends of the walls slope down in such a way as to be rather less than defendable, I suggest, and I got the impression that the purpose of these earthworks might have been to guide, but also to slow down and build suspense for, a procession of visitors approaching from the west who could have walked an S-shaped route along the ditches towards the sun rising over the art.
Your thoughts?

Roughting Linn Rock Art submitted by TimPrevett on 25th Apr 2015. BBC Countryfile will have a feature with Roughting Linn on 3rd May 2015 - at least that's what they told us when we stumbled upon them filming there during the Easter Holidays. An emphasis on the sound at Rock Art sites in their feature explains the nice parabolic microphone!

Log Text: A fine site to visit. I remain perplexed by the "hillfort" and suspect that the walls and ditches might have formed a processional way. I found that water flows N, S, E & W from the adapted cup and similar marks at the highest point of the rock mass.

Ysbyty Cynfyn Stone Circle submitted by Johnny on 10th Oct 2001. Ysbyty Cynfyn "Stone Circle" (SN 752 791)
This readily accessible site is situated alongside the A4120 running south from Ponterwyd towards Devil's Bridge. The circle is not marked as an antiquity on recent OS maps but the church itself is easily found. Despite recent dissenting opinion, it has generally been accepted that this is an example of the early Christian Church adopting an ancient site, in this case an embanked Bronze Age stone circle, presumably in an attempt to "des...
