The circle is actually on the other side of the road and not as displayed on the map, next time I will save the exact coordinates. According to the book "Sacred Ireland" there is an 11 foot pillar stone with a Ballaun up the lane behind the farmhouse just before the circle in Templebryan Monastic enclosure near a small ruined church, I did not get to visit this today Comments (0)  |  Add a comment  |  Permalink

I found this site a bit difficult to understand. Some of the stones are missing, and the surrounding land has been heavily altered for farming. The stones themselves were tall and flat-topped. JC was parked in the lay-by, typing up his notes, as we arrived. Comments (0)  |  Add a comment  |  Permalink

At the centre of this circle is a large block of quartz, 'Cloch Greine' or 'Sun Stone' and it is thought to have given Clonakilty or Clocha na Coilte its name. Comments (0)  |  Add a comment  |  Permalink
