Tombstone Tuesday. There is a field I passed by most of my life Maybe 30 or 40 times a year currently, but probably most days when I was a child. From the road I could see some type of Dolmen in the field. I often thought “I should check that out sometime”. On Saturday I finally did. #Tomb #Tombstone #TombstoneTuesday #AncientStone #Ancestors #Dolmen #PortalTomb #Monument #Cromlech #Ballybrack #Dublin #Ireland #Mastodaoine #BCE #photography #foto
