Home > The circle is surrounded by a low bank and ditch which is water logged and makes entering the circle very difficult without waterproof boots. As you can see in this photo, the stones are graded in height towards the portals on the right from the recumbent to the far left.
Home > Despite its obscure location and overgrown state, the circle has been well cared for and is in very good condition. It surpasses the more heavily visited Drombeg for the atmosphere of place and the appearance of being almost untouched since it was in use in the Bronze Age, over three thousand years ago.
Home > Reanascreena is a wonderful circle in a very obscure location, two fields from the nearest local road and hidden from view until you are very near. Despite this it commands fine views and even the sea, several miles away, is partly visible.

Home > The Three Fingers, also known as 'Gurranes' are the three survivours of an original five stone row located high on a ridge with extensive views. The tallest stone is over four metres high and towers above the stump of its fallen neighbour which still lies where it fell. The fifth original stone was removed by a local man and placed in a garden in nearby Castletownshend.

Home > Proleek, or 'The Giants Load' as it is known locally, is surely one of Irelands most spectacular and ambitious dolmens. Many tripod dolmens feature capstones resting on pin-point contact with the orthostats but this enormous thirty tonne capstone is unusually large and stands almost five metres high.
