Welcome

My Posey Photo

Megalithomania.com is a site originally dedicated to Irish megaliths, but now expanded to include all sorts of antiquities that are of importance/interest.

My third book about Ireland's prehistoric heritage, Monu-Mental About Prehistoric Antrim, is now available and, like my first two books, Monu-Mental About Prehistoric Dublin and Monu-Mental About Prehistoric Waterford, is available in the shops or from this website - just click Shop at the top of the page.

I try and visit sites as often as I can, trying to get out twice a month, but failing lately due to work pressures. For quick access to the latest trips use the link on the menu bar. To browse all the sites I've visited over the last 7 years use the links on the left-hand side.

More ...

Until we meet in the stones ... Ride On!!

Here's a big step for megalithomania! I've added a forum!

Lots of people have emailed me asking for this and I was recently thrown off a well-known forum, so here it is:

I'll add a link on the left menu soon.

Adding A New Dimension - Sunday, 14th February 2010 Click To View RSS Feeds

This week I set out to visit some new places and some I had previously visited. The reason for the planned revisits was to go to monuments that I thought would look good in 3D. Yes, 3D! I've bought one of Fuji's new 3D cameras and although I won't be able to share the proper 3D images with you all I will be putting up some anaglyph images for you all. So, it's time to go back to the 80s, get out those blue and red glasses and start seeing things in 3D. As soon as the images are up on megalithomania I will add a new section to the home page and there'll be a new section on the site pages. 3D glasses will be available from my shop.

Talking of the shop: I've mentioned t-shirts in the past. Well, I've got two designs ready that I'll be adding to the shop soon, too. There will be more on the way later on.

Back to the trip. Myself and my daughter visited sites in Kildare, Carlow and Wexford, basically doing a small circuit around Mount Leinster. We had planned a couple of Wicklow sites on the way home, but we couldn't keep ahead of the rain.

We tried to visit a portal tomb I've not been to, but thoroughbred horses and no owner at home stopped us. I'll be back there though, as I have contact information now. The main site of the day was St. Mullins. What a great place it is. There's so much to see: a holy well, a high cross, churches, a motte and bailey, more churches and a lovely little high cross. If you go in season there's a visitor centre, too.
