Howth Demesne

Portal Tomb

Howth Demesne (Portal Tomb) by ryaner The heavy end of the now collapsed capstone rests solely on the eastern portal stone. The doorstone and the western portal stone stand pretty much as they would have before the collapse. The eastern portal is tilted way to the east, pushed backwards by the capstone but not in its way so much that it snapped.
