Beaghmore (Bheitheach Mhór), meaning ‘big place of birch trees’.
The stones speak of ancient rituals and to a people who understood astronomy. When you visit this ancient site look up in wonder at the sky and reflect, that the people that built these monuments observed the same sky, sun, moon and stars.
