A portal tomb legendary for its spectacular form which shifts from every angle.
Kilclooney More Dolmen, Co. Donegal
This is the smaller tomb, its capstone and sidestones pushed aside. Note the unsual lintel stone that sits on top of the portal stones and would have supported the capstone. The larger tomb also features a chock stone so that the angle of the capstone could be set just right, obviously a significant feature to the builders.
