The Giant's Ring - Belfast

 Some pics of a trip I made to Ireland ages ago.
I hope to return soon.
This is from a very special place in Northern Ireland , just outside Belfast.
 
This site dates from the Neolithic period and was built around 2700BC...
 

 
It's older than the pyramids
 
 
It's like hundreds of other passage tombs built in Ireland during the Neolithic period, such as Newgrange,  
... of course not as big.


It is near the Shaw's Bridge crossing of the River Lagan,
 

 A scan from my diary.
