The Drombeg Stone Circle (also known as The Druid’s Altar)...

I hate it

Where’s summer?!

The Drombeg Stone Circle (also known as The Druid’s Altar) consists of seventeen closely spaced stones spanning 9 m (29 ft) in diameter, of which 13 survive.

The site was excavated and restored in 1958. During this process a pot was found in the centre of the circle, containing the cremated remains of a young adolescent wrapped with thick cloth. Carbon dating of samples taken from the site suggest that it was active c. 945 - 830 BC. The pot was buried near the centre of the circle along with 80 other smashed sherds, four bits of shale and a collection of sweepings from a pyre.
