Megalithomania.com is a site originally dedicated to Irish megaliths, but now expanded to include all sorts of antiquities that are of importance/interest.

My third book about Ireland's prehistoric heritage, Monu-Mental About Prehistoric Antrim, is now available and, like my first two books, Monu-Mental About Prehistoric Dublin and Monu-Mental About Prehistoric Waterford, is available in the shops or from this website - just click Shop at the top of the page.

I try and visit sites as often as I can, trying to get out every weekend, but failing lately due to work pressures. For quick access to the latest trips use the link on the menu bar. To browse all the sites I've visited over the last 7 years use the links on the left-hand side.

Until we meet in the stones ... Ride On!!

Up A Wicklow Peak With New Discoveries - Saturday, 6th June 2009 Click To View RSS Feeds

For some time now I've wanted to visit the non-cairn on top of Prince William's Seat above Enniskerry. Why a 'non-cairn'? Because there's a cairn marked on the OS map, but no signs of it now.

The walk from the Wicklow Way car park is a relatively easy one. The first section is a compacted hardcore track that goes through a cleared pine plantation. The Wicklow Way leaves this then and climbs the hill via what almost a staircase made of boulders. This section is one of the nicest bits of the Wicklow Way that I've been on and makes the climb up Prince William's Seat quite easy. Once at the top of this climb the Wicklow Way continues over to Glencullen and a path goes off to the left to the top of the mountain.

To the right at this point there is a path to Ravens Rock - two granite outcrops - which is where I discovered two standing stones that I haven't seen recorded anywhere. I didn't take the path up to the top of Prince William's Seat, but scrambled through the heather to check out some large rocks I could see. Several of these also appear to be standing stones. More interestingly several of them seem to be in a line that points firstly to Ravens Rock and then on to The Great Sugar Loaf Mountain! This could be an alignment worth checking out when I can work out the right time of year.
