Dromberg Stone Circle

Drombeg stone circle (also known as The Druid’s Altar), is a Recumbent stone circle located east of Glandore, County Cork, Ireland. Drombeg is one of the most visited megalithic sites in Ireland. The area of the circle has been covered in gravel to protect it from the volume of visitors. The stone circle consists of seventeen closely spaced stones. A “Cork-Kerry type” stone circle, it is flanked by a pair of 1.8m high axial portal stones, which provide a south-west axis, and orientate the monument in the direction of the setting sun during the midwinter solstice.
