Log Text: Second visit on April 22, 2008 on my second visit to Inishmore, Aran Islands. It is, indeed as jwells0612 says, a beautiful place to visit.
Situated near the village of Eoghanacht in the western part of Inishmore, this site consists, despite the name, of two churches -- Teampall Bhreacain (begun in the 8th Century) and Teampall an Phoill (from the 15th Century) -- as the other buildings are the dwellings of the monks. Teampall Bhreacain is the largest building and the main church on the site. Nearby is the burial place, marked by a fragment of stone, of St. Breacan. St. Breacan came to the Aran Islands in the late 5th-early 6th Century, around the same time as St. Enda.
A number of other gravestones are found at the site. Four inscribed stone pillars, the oldest on the site, stand out marking a number of graves behind them. Also, there are the remains of two high crosses, one in the monastic grounds and the other in a nearby field.

York Roman remains submitted by jeffrep on 7th Apr 2020. The English city of York has, since Roman times, been defended with walls of one form or another. In 71 A.D., the Romans built a fort occupying about 50 acres on the banks of the River Ouse, and surrounded it with a rectangle of walls. The original fort was replaced in 108 A.D. by a massive stone structure with walls that survived the centuries.
