Log Text: Only one stone remains of the pair. No visible trace of the second stone. Watch out for bullocks. The farmer who has the land to the west of the stones through which I gained access is a friendly fella, happy for me to cross his land, simple request of "please close the gate after you ".

Log Text: About a mile and a half walk from the nearest public road on a good forest track but the last 200 metres are a real battle with nature as the circle is located quite deep in a conifer plantation with no easy route in.
Big slice of imagination required as the conifers block any view of the surrounding landscape. It makes for a very picturesque seeing though. I liked it.

Carrigonirtane wedge tomb submitted by GaelicLaird on 23rd Mar 2021. Looking south west with some possible kerb stones on the right.
More stones can be felt underfoot as you walk around the site but are covered by grass and not easily visible.
It's a wild location for sure.
