Clontygora Court Tomb, Co. Armagh, NI

Looking across the adjoining field, there seemed to be a small stone circle with fairly tall stones (2 meters or more) on the opposite side of the field. There didn't seem to be any public access to it. The directions to this court cairn in Sacred Ireland are wrong because they have built a multi-lane freeway and the turnoff described in the book is no longer there. We took an off ramp to a round-a-bout and headed off from it in the general direction we thought it was supposed to be. With dumb luck we found a sign pointing up a side road. We took the road and went quite a ways before turning back and found that the cairn was right at the corner where we had turned, but not really noticeable from that direction. We found Ballymacdermot Court Cairn on a different road from the same round-a-bout when we were looking for a public restroom.
