Uragh Stone Circle On Beara Peninsula Irish West Coast Stock Image

One of my favourite places in Ireland is the Beara peninsula, a piece of rugged land shared between Cork and Kerry. Scattered all along the peninsula are numerous megalithic monuments from a bygone age. One of the most moving and mystical of these monuments has to be the Uragh Stone Circle at Uragh near Gleninchaquin Park in Kerry. Beautifully situated on a small hillock between lough Cloonee Upper and Lough Inchiquinn, the monument consists of a five stone circle with a huge outlier in close proximity.
