A collection of photographs of megalithic sites that I have visited over the last twenty five years, many of which are to be found in West Cork, but also some from travels in England, France and Spain.

Gortanimill, Co Cork
For my first megalith visit in Cork for a couple of years, I dropped by the Gortanimill stone circle, situated on the southern side of the Douglas river valley, and not too far from Macroom where I was heading.
There are twelve stones still here in this circle from a probable original thirteen, with heights ranging from 40 to 90cm and a diameter of 7.5m. Alignment is NNE-SSW. In the centre lies a quartz stone.
