Castle Espie Wetlands Park, Co Down, N. Ireland

Have just unearthed some old negatives and transparencies from my time in Jordan in the late '80s and early '90s. This one is from 1987.

The Giant's Ring dates from the Neolithic period and was built around 2700BC. The site consists of a circular enclosure, 180 m (590 ft) in diameter and 2.8 hectares (6.9 acres) in area, surrounded by a circular earthwork bank 3.5 m (11 ft) high. At least three of the five irregularly spaced gaps in the bank are intentional and possibly original. East of the centre of the enclosure is a small passage tomb with a vestigial passage facing west.
