Glendruid Cromlech, Co. Dublin: A Timeless Enigma in the Irish Countryside Nestled in the picturesque countryside of County Dublin, Ireland, lies the enigmatic Glendruid Cromlech. This ancient monument, a dolmen, stands as a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of the region. Circa early 1900s, this photograph captures a captivating view of the dolmen from the north, with a lady standing to the left for scale. The Glendruid Cromlech, also known as the Glendruid Dolmen, is a Neolithic tomb dating back approximately 4,000 years. It is believed to have been constructed as a burial site for the local community during the Neolithic period. The structure consists of a large capstone resting on three upright stones, creating a chamber that once housed the remains of the deceased. The dolmen, surrounded by lush greenery and dotted with wildflowers, exudes an aura of mystery and intrigue. The lady, dressed in turn-of-the-century attire, adds a sense of contrast and human connection to the scene. Her presence serves as a reminder of the countless generations that have passed since the construction of this ancient monument. The Glendruid Cromlech is a popular tourist attraction and a source of pride for the local community. It stands as a symbol of Ireland's rich history and the enduring allure of its ancient sites. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, inviting us to ponder the stories and secrets that the dolmen holds within its ancient stones.
