Rath Lugh
Date Added: 20th Sep 2015
Site Type: Promontory Fort / Cliff Castle
Country: Ireland (Republic of) (Co. Meath)
Visited: Yes on 1st Sep 2007. My rating: Condition -1 Ambience 1
Rath Lugh submitted by Andy B on 23rd Mar 2008. Rath Lugh is listed as a promontory fort. It is clearly a very massive and impressive monument, built onto a natural feature. As well as giant rings, the hill also appears to contain a mound, possibly a motte or passage-tomb.

Blocc and Bluigne submitted by McDeil on 8th Jan 2002. These two stones are inside the churchyard at the Hill of Tara.
Obviously they pre-date the church. Strange that they allowed pagan stones to remain within their hallowed grounds?

Log Text: The major Cairn structure covering is largely destroyed but well defined. The key orthostats that make up the central chambers are fairly well intact with some petroglyphs weathered but still quite visible. Others have been eroded away to a large extent but can still be viewed in good light. The Cairn is quite well aligned with the November and February cross quarters and it appears the alignment is designed to signify the last day in the November cross quarter and the first day of the February cross quarter before the departure or at at the arrival of light into the chamber. There is significant decoration in the right hand chamber that would be highly illuminated on these dates. Unlike Cairn L where this also occurs the loss of tunnel structure means that this effect is much less evident.
