Pawton Quoit: A Stone Age Enigma in Cornwall Pawton Quoit is a magnificent portal dolmen built by Cornwall’s stone age inhabitants. The imposing megalith sits, mostly intact, atop a ridge overlooking a steep valley. The enormous capstone, which juts out incongruously against the landscape, must weigh at least 15 tonne, and perches on just three points of the supporting upright stones.

Newgrange passage tomb: a large, circular hill with a 'wall' of white stone encircling half of it.

In the Middle Neolithic Boyne Valley 🇮🇪 passage graves were superseded by more open circular enclosures. Circular 'proto-henge' monuments developed in southern Britain shortly after. Were they inspired by interaction across the Irish Sea? #MegalithicMonday

7,000-year-old underwater wall raises questions about ancient engineering — and lost-city legends Scientists found a massive underwater wall in France that might help explain the origin of the legend of Ys.

Scientists discover a 400 foot long megalithic stone wall built over 7,000 years ago submerged 30 feet underwater off the coast of France.

Pair of standing stones in a field with cows.

Rear view of the stones with more cows.

Rummaging through old photographs I’ve found some mystery Megaliths from a day out cycling on the one day it didn’t rain. These are probably near Gortin Village/Glens in Tyrone, Norn’ Ireland.
