Site Type: Chambered Cairn
Country: Scotland (Dumfries and Galloway)
Visited: Yes on 17th Aug 2010
Cairnholy 2 submitted by AngieLake on 17th Aug 2010. It seems sacrilegious to allow a barn of that size to be erected so close to this wonderful monument, but the farmer must have had good reason, and no doubt, permission! Shame though...

Lough Gur E
Date Added: 26th Sep 2010
Site Type: Multiple Stone Rows / Avenue
Country: Ireland (Republic of) (Co. Limerick)
Visited: Yes on 15th Mar 2008
Lough Gur E submitted by AngieLake on 15th Mar 2008. This site, taken from camcorder footage from the field gate, was just across the road, to the right of the farmhouse when viewed from Grange circle. Therefore, it must have been NW. The farmer showed me the site but I didn't go into the field to read the sign by the stones, and because it was 7 years ago, I don't recall what the farmer said about it!
