Megalith with Waterfall

The Uragh Stone Circle is located on the Beara peninsula near Gleninchaquin Park, Tuosist, County Kerry, Ireland. Adjacent to Lough Inchiquin, the five low stones form a circle 8 feet in diameter next to a large standing stone about 10 feet high, which may have been erected to draw attention to the smaller stones. The center of the circle has been dug out by treasure seekers. There are several other monuments nearby, including a multiple stone circle and some boulder burials. Although not large as megalithic sites go, the scenic backdrop of the waterfall cascading down the mountain across the lough lends this stone circle a majestic quality.
