Lissyviggeen, county Kerry

V 997 906 - Sheet 78

Nearest town: Killarney


This too-well-known seven-stone circle within a low surrounding bank of earth
(beyond which stand two large outliers) has been closed to visitors, due to the amount of broken glass, litter,
and other profanation of the sacred place.
It may now be re-opened.


One of the outliers seems to be partially-dressed, with a face carved on an edge.
