Sweetcheat, my good man, you are absolutely priceless. Have just spent the last couple of hours going through your old blogs and the very excellent photo's therein. There can be no doubt that what I've seen is identical to what is over here.
Kenidjack Castle 14/6/11, photo 6. Seems to show identical scree alteration. Can't see the detail, but lots of same here.
Yellowmead s.e cairn. 7/8/10.Very similar indeed.
Cwm Ian cairn. 17/7/10. Identical to many in the Comeraghs.
Enclosure east of Down Tor 12/7/10. Identical angling of stones, with the longest tapers pointing skywards.
Round cairn east of Down Tor 12/7/10. Identical to accumulations of stone here.
Drizzlecomb. 12/7/10. Images 1 and 2. Identical
Tregiffian Vean 22/7/10. Image 4 of 4. Blocked chamber. Numerous examples in the Comeraghs. Described by local archaeo's as "field clearance" (and Popeye is the first lord sea admiral...)
Chun Castle. 15/6/10. Images 1 and 2. Swathes of rocks absolutely identical, with longest tapers pointing upwards.
Now if we are all agreed that these are not natural rock formations, then we have a whole new ball game. There is now no doubt in my mind whatsoever, that what happened along western Britain and what was going on in South east Ireland was one and the same thing. Hope that answers your last post Timpers old boy!

How can a collection of different pics from those mentioned answer the last post ? You have merely avoided it .
I doubt anyone would see any similarities with the Welsh examples and Comeragh . As for the new pics , . Cwm Ian , Yellowmead ,Tregiffian Vean ,Down Tor cairn and enclosure are all clearly monuments that stand out from the surrounding landscape . Drizzlecombe is an obvious stone row it also has a very big terminal monolith , Chun Castle is a settlement and Kendijack an iron Age fort , and none have any claims for excarnation
