Annadorn Dolmen
Annadorn Dolmen is a dolmen sited at the Buck's Head near Loughinisland, in the townland of Annadorn. Nearby you can find the old Annadorn school and post office in County Down, Northern Ireland. It is on the north-east shore of Loughinisland Lake, on a hillock overlooking Loughinisland Churches, a group of three ruined churches. The site is a State Care Historic Monument at grid ref: J4289 4591.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=State Care Historic Monuments )〕 Co-ordinates: Latitude: 54° 20' 29.97" N Longitude: 5° 48' 8.72" W 〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=The Modern Antiquarian )〕
==Features==
The dolmen has a large, low, slightly displaced capstone about 65 cm thick covering a rectangular chamber and supported by three stones about 60 cm high. An account of 1802 suggests that it was formerly set beneath a large rectangular cairn 60 ft in diameter and approached by a lintelled passage, so it could be the remains of a passage grave.〔〔 Another possible explanation could be that the supporting stones were originally upright supporting the capstone, representing a more typical tripod dolmen. The monument has not been excavated and closer examination would be required to correctly interpret the site.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=Irish Antiquities )〕 The capstone has many small solution pits on the upper surface, two of which appear to have been enlarged. The 1802 account also says the chamber under the capstone contained ashes and a number of bones.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=A Journey through Kinelarty )〕
