It looks huge & maybe not as old as you think, just seems a little too 'pefectly round'. However, nothing beats eyes on the ground. That area is very poor, you find most things at the 150m (Eye Alt height) & your at 553. Keep searching...

In Ireland all the forts and burial tombs where at the highest point in the area.. That way the people still had to look up to their king... It looks like this.. An grianan alligh one of the most iconic in Europe

OK, I have no experience in these, so good luck.

It seems to have a route to it which splits into 2.

I would have NEVER seen that. Good eyes!

That is a great looking site and most defiantly worth exploring. Keep us posted on your progress.
How do you get the images from Digitalglobe, do you have to purchase a program from them? I have some sites that I would love to have images like that for.

Isn't it against the law to detect in Ireland

Hey guys... Went Snd checked it out... Seems its a stone circle... Around 2/3 thousand years old.. Nobody quite sure of the exact use of these.. But suspect pagan worship and solstice marking.. Not much metal in those days but had a frat day out there... Joe
