Drombeg Stone Circle

Reviewed By Chrisyberg - Canton, United States

We finally found this lovely stone circle. Someone spent much time making the walkway to it covered with Fusia. Very interesting and there is almost no one here. You almost have the place to yourself. Very interesting to explore

Four Knocks

Reviewed By 319jayh - Perth, Australia

We had planned to go to the large, well known, megalithic burial tombs at Bru Na Boinne. But, as well, my partner found out about Four Knocks on the web, so we thought we'd check it out. Glad we did. This is not easy to find on the winding back roads of Ireland, but persist. Then, when you get there you get instructions to a local farmers house to pay a 20 Euro deposit to get a key to go inside. Stick with it and do it. This is a little baby compared to Newgrange and Knowth, but it is almost a 1,000 years older. The carvings are all there to be touched. You can climb around and on a structure that is older than the Pyramids. This is a quirky and fun piece of history that you can't help but be moved by. Strongly recommended.
