Ballybrack Dolmen, Co. Dublin.
Click on the photo for a larger view.
Bizzarely located in the green area of a housing estate in the southern suburbs of Dublin, this compact and delightful tomb seems to be crouching away from the nastiness of city life and is almost perfectly aligned with a nearby bus stop. What it lacks in ambience it makes up for in ease of access as the aforementioned bus stop makes this probably the easiest portal tomb for anyone to visit in the Dublin area.
The nearby Fógra sign unwittingly points out the comedy of an unprotected 5,000 year old monument located in a council estate, making a nice climb frame and dog toilet.
