| DRUID'S ALTAR - BEAR ISLAND I |

| The so called Druid’s altar near Rerrin village at the south-east corner of Bear Island is in fact the wedge tomb of Ardaragh West. Gorse’s 1st painting shows the tomb from the south-east, looking inland towards one of the island’s Martello Towers. DANIEL GROSE (1766 - 1838) |
