A double tomb, lost in an ancient Irish peat bog

The Aghanaglack archaeological site was discovered in 1938 by Professor Davies. What he thought was a cairn turned out to be a double tomb, made up of twin galleries (one of which is said to be 4 metres long), built on an east-west alignment. A priori, excavations in 1938 would date the building to the Bronze Age.

Numerous pieces of pottery and arrowheads were found, as well as the bones of 2 children (some of which are on display at the Enniskillen museum).

The place is magnificent, very quiet, and has the advantage of still being little-known by tourists. The perfect place to recharge your batteries and discover the authentic charm of Irish stone!
