The superb but badly overgrown circle of Gurteen is even allowing for its present state a must see.
Eleven of the original twelve stones still stand.
This Circle also has a boulder burial stone as its centre piece.
The circle is just over 10 meters in diameter.
The stones in the circle vary in height from over 1 meter to just over 2.5 meters.
The location of this site really makes it special with scenic views all round and during my visit total silence.
Access The Circle is quite easy to find compared to other sites close by.
Park at the cattle gate (climb over) and walk up around the corner the circle will be on your Left.
Beware if visiting after rain as the ground around the site gets very bogey and cattle sometimes graze close by.
