Massive mostly complete tomb with two capstones and large inner chamber.
Knockeen Portal Tomb, Co. Waterford.
Sadly built into a wall, this massive portal tomb must have once dominated the bare landscape. Two large capstones rest on top of one another and a doorstone between the 2m tall portal stones almost seals the chamber.
