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.

Kirkcarrion
Date Added: 19th Jul 2017
Site Type: Round Barrow(s)
Country: England (County Durham)
Visited: Saw from a distance on 14th Jul 2017
Log Text: You can park free in the old school yard next to the bridge over the Tees, and follow the Pennine Way until you choose to divert towards the site. I know this because a helpful woman in the community bookshop told me (but she did say it's a Saxon burial site). The tourist info office is open only a few hours a week. Both places are staffed by volunteers.

Log Text: If the weather is other than warm and dry and settled, try to find an approach on grass. There is one on the south side. Limestone pavement can be very slippery. It was covered in black ice at the time of my visit.
Let me know if you find a quern stone on, near or within the site.

Log Text: It's a whopper. Higher, I guess, than the front end of West Kennet Long Barrow. At a glance from the road it might be mistaken for a modern pile of earth from road building, or similar construction. The aerial view in Bing's mapping shows a crop mark of sorts with squared off corners at NNE, ESE, SSW and WNW, BUT there is horse racing training going on nearby, although one wouldn't expect squared corners on such a circle?
Pierres Droites (Monteneuf)
Date Added: 9th Jul 2019
Site Type: Stone Row / Alignment
Country: France (Bretagne:Morbihan (56))
Visited: Yes on 20th Apr 2019. My rating: Condition 3 Ambience 2 Access 3
Pierres Droites (Monteneuf) submitted by TheCaptain on 19th Jun 2007. The true extent of these stones was only discovered in the last 20 years or so after a forest fire, yet this set of aligned menhirs is probably one of the most important in France.

Log Text: A good visit with children, I suggest, because the techniques for moving and setting up the stones are demonstrated, and actively so at more popular times of year. For me the site is somewhat lacking in ambience because, although I can't adequately explain why, the replaced stones seem modern.
