I had really wanted to visit the court tomb at Shasgar and, quite stupidly, decided to walk there from the court tomb at Mautiagh (County Leitrim) via this stone ... which seems to have disappeared! There is a mini cairn in its location though and a pile of stones that marks teh junction of two walls.
The ground up here is very treacherous bog and I seriously feared that I might disappear down a hole at any moment. As it was just 40 minutes until sunset I decided that the walk to Shasgar and back again would be a thing only a mad person would even contemplate and went back to the car to head home. Shasgar will have to wait for another day ...
