In TMA Julian suggests Ross-Carberry region stone Irish stone circles are a 'decadent' form of the original (Aberdeenshire) recumbent circles. And suggests they were no longer so full of meaning to the builders.
It'll be interesting to see if he expands of revises this theory in The Megalithic European. Do we know if he has spent much time around this region in preperation for the book?

He did a gig in Cork and indeed wondered around there for a while more. Don't know what the outcome was or if it was more for Megalithic European or for Let Me Speak To The Driver.

I've never really liked this link to the RSCs, nor do I consider that the builders had lost their meaning. Visit enough and they are very powerful structures, despite some being so small. The RSCs were about the sky. The Irish axials about the land.
