Image of Micknanstown (Henge) by bawn79

U should hopefully be able to make out the slight embankment of the henge running from the left mid to right mid of the photo and back over the ditch in the background.

Micknanstown

Henge

This is right beside the road, from Fourknocks head down to the t junction and turn right (in the direction you get the key), follow this road down until you come to a hard left (after “the halls”) and there is a little bit of grass here that you can stand on to view it.
It isnt that high but this may be due to farm-works. Diameter approx 30-50m?
