Giant's RingThe fascinating and mysterious Giant's Ring, near Shaw's Bridge,
is made up of a circular enclosure nearly 656 feet (200m) in
diameter with five entrances, and an older Neolithic passage tomb
dating back to roughly 3,000 BC. Although the exact purpose of the
henge is not known, some say that it served as a meeting point and
ritual area, and several packages and urns full of bones have been
excavated in the surroundings. There are beautiful views across the
Lagan Valley, and the Ring is a favourite spot for locals and
tourists alike to relax, picnic, cycle or walk. Address: Ballynahatty, near Shaw's Bridge Admission: Free |
