The maligned, nay, reviled, Glencloghlea is not all that bad. Newross on the other hand…

This is looking north I think, this used to be the ‘bad side’ according to Fourwinds pictures but has now been promoted due to the fact that the other side is now invisible.

Oh-dear oh-dear oh-dear... Almost complete ruin isn’t the last indignity for this tomb, just to add a pinch of insult it now has a tree growing out of its rear end and a thick growth of brambles and nettles on its, cough, ‘good side’. It was almost as if it knew I was only here to avoid the traffic through New Ross. A dirty pox on that nuisance of a town! Its so bad even the main road out of the town brings you back into the town at the other end, gah!! Anyway, this snivelling wreck of a monument is probably only worth visiting if you are dropped into the field after an alien abduction. I’m sure it was quite nice in a former life but alas, no more.
