You would never forget your first journey to Glencolmcille. It's remote beauty is a joy to behold even on a dull evening like this.

This Pillar Stone faces towards the ocean and marks a Station on an ancient pilgrimage known as Turas Cholmcille which probably dates from 500-600AD.

Archaeologists tell us the pillar is about 5,000 years old.
