Poulnabrone
(1986) - This fine dolmen is situated on The Burren, a natural
rock table fractured into many fine crevices. In springtime
many of these crevices contain a microcosmos of breathtaking flora
blossoming on a Lilliputian scale. This extensive table rock also
platforms a number of imposing ruins, among them this dolmen, a
Neolithic monument of unknown function, perhaps a burial chamber.
The Burren is in the northwest of the County Clare, in Ireland.
I was there in 1978.
