Stone Circles of Beara: Uragh
Рет қаралды 1,380
Жыл бұрынUragh stone circle is undoubtedly one of the most striking circles in the Beara peninsula. It should definitely be on anyone's list of places to visit in Beara (or indeed Kerry, as it is in the Kerry part of the peninsula). It is in an isolated region, between between Cloonee Lough and Lough Inchiquin, looking towards the Caha Mountains and Gleninchaquin Waterfall. A five stone circle, with a large sentinel stone standing guard over it. Uragh is a special place, one which has its own special reward.

This is one of the most beautiful stone circles I have so far seen (way to few, though) and definitely on our wish list this summer when we'll be over from dull Holland 😊✌️

Thanks for your comment. It is easy to get to, half an hour drive from Kenmare, just be prepared for a few k on very narrow roads!

You will, it's just one county over. Actually in Beara you can easily enter Kerry without realising

Thank you. I hope your journey will be great. I have a new video this week about the civil war, but I am planning to visit a new stone circle this week (one that is not well known, but I hope is beautiful), so keep an eye out...

An amazing place. As is the stone circle itself: five young girls happily chatting, for a long, long time.

The mound behind was there any kists found in it? There are many of these in the Scottish borders. Air Eilean leodhas na tursaichean calanais.

There are many stones round callanish on the island of Lewis, although part of the Gaelic world too,the stones are very different from yours in Erin!

@@grahamfleming8139 I don't any cists were found in this one, probably because they weren't excavated! I am fairly sure that there have been found near other stone circles (as well as some having boulder burials in the middle)

@@forasfeasa just a wee word about the cists, on the farm I grew up there is a similar hill in the Scottish borders amongst many I have seen here in this region.

@@grahamfleming8139 Interesting. To be honest, I think the Scottish border region is the part of the country I know least about.
