Kilmashogue, county Dublin

O 147 238

Just beyond the South Dublin suburbs at Larch Hill., this collapsed Portal-tomb has one portal-stone standing 3 metres tall. There are vestiges of a forecourt, substantial remains of its cairn, and the other portal stone lies beneath the roots of a tree. The fallen capstone is a slab around 2.4 metres square.
