After a twisty country lane drive into the hills and farmlands, following signs to the off-the-map destination, I came to the gate\u2014opened it up\u2014and drove on in. Crossing a raging river with scenic overlooks of lakes and an astounding waterfall in the distance, the site was nothing more than enchanting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The stone circle is atop a plateau above the valley overlooking Loch Inchiquinn, the other side of Cloonee Upper, and is surrounded by a ring of mountains. The 8&#8242; diameter circle consists of approximately five low small megalith locally sourced sandstone stones (1.2-1.8 meters high) with a significant 3 meter high (approx. 10&#8242;) monolithic outlier standing stone. Two of the rocks are portal stones (one leaning outwards). The standing stone aligns the circle on a NE-SW axis. Center of the circle has been dug out potentially by looters, when it was looted is unknown. A low earthen bank surrounds the circle. The Irish Office of Public Works manages the site, which is open year-round, free of charge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The circle dates to the Bronze Age. It is estimated to have been built between 3300-900 B.C.E. It is connected to a larger typology of stone circles commonly found in Brittany, Britain, and Ireland. These are often constructed of standing stones arranged in a circle. Many believe this was used for burials, religious or ceremonial purposes, and\/or community gatherings. In Irish regional stone circles, this particular circle is representative of D-shaped stone circles found in this region, with the axial stone forming the line of the &#8220;D&#8221;. This specific circle is aligned with the Winter Solstice sunset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Down the road and up a slippery slope is a <a title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/archaeologyfinds.com\/?p=182\">famine cottage<\/a> built into the hillside. It&#8217;s crazy to think how the poor during the Irish Famine had to live in such miserable conditions. I can&#8217;t even imagine the folkways and lore that surrounded these houses. This one evoked a feeling of somberness and solitude, and the ruins echoed that feeling. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>References:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Ancient Ireland 2024 Uragh Stone Circle And Lake Of Gleninchaquin.
