Athgoe Hill Round Barrow(s) View all content for Athgoe Hill

Large barrow on the top of Athgoe Hill, just about inside the county Dublin boundary. Athgoe Hill and Lyons Hill are the last, most north-westerly, of a series of hills/mountains that form an arc to the south of Dublin city. Access to the barrow is easy as there's a track up to the aerial/mobile phone mast. It's quite henge-like, about 45 metres in diameter and also quite ploughed/eroded away. In fact the national monument's database has this as an enclosure, with the remains of the barrow downslope to the north of here.
