Wow, fantastic find! It is only a skeleton now compared to this.	Posted by CianMcLiam 9th February 2017ce
Well I'm glad you think it's the same place because I wouldn't know any better :) I'm afraid the accompanying article says "It is a great pity that this fine monument is so disfigured with accumulations of stones, so completely destroying its goodly appearance and proportions. If isolated from the connecting fences, it would probably be found to be fine megalithic structures. It might be a matter of consideration for the Society to endeavour, through some person locally interested in antiquarian research, to have this matter remedied by diverting one of the stone walls a little aside, and clearing out the chamber." Oh right yeah I think we've got to just move everything, was that what he said? nooooo oops too late.	Posted by Rhiannon 10th February 2017ce
