Giant's Ring is one of the largest prehistoric ritual enclosures in Ireland. A circular earthwork up to 4m high surrounds an open space nearly 180m in diameter and some 7 acres in area. Five 'entrance' gaps, not all of which are thought to be original, give access to the interior of the ring. A few lone trees break the skyline along the rim of the bank. Placed slightly off centre in the ring is a megalithic chamber with passage-tomb affinities, consisting of five uprights supporting a tilted capstone. If there was a covering cairn no trace of it remains. It is by any reckoning a tremendously impressive, peaceful place, a silent arena which holds the secrets of forgotten ceremonies of 4,000 + years ago.
