Turoe Stone
The Green Guide
The Michelin Guide's review
In the middle of a field (on the right) stands a block of granite (1 m high) with a rounded top engraved with curvilinear motifs from the La Tène era (second Iron Age - 450-50 BC) and a step pattern arranged in four panels. Aside from these motifs, the stylised head of a bird and a triskele (Celtic decorative motif) can be made out. It is probably a Celtic ritual stone, having been discovered nearby in a pre-Christian fort.
