It's a nice walk down this lane of Kenmare homes and into a field to view the Stone Circle. No charge and worth the short walk to view the history.

The stone circle would have been interesting if you could see the surrounding area in context. As it is, it has been blocked in and made into a small parklike area.

I was very impressed by the stone circle, but realy this site should be run by the OPW. Why do we have to pay to see it?

Loved the isolated nature of the stone circle. IT was not well advertised in any of the guides nor on signs in Kenmare, Well worth seeing

It's not impressive so much as interesting, and it has a very peaceful setting almost right in the town.
