Clogherny, county Tyrone

In this photograph taken with an old camera in 1972, you can just make out a wedge-tomb with a straight façade and one surviving roofstone. It is set in a round cairn which is surrounded by a circle (18 metres in diameter) of low stones about 90 cms high.
The monument enshrines the various building-practices of the court-tomb, wedge-tomb and stone circle cultic traditions, in an area of cultural and cultic interpenetration.
