Grianán of Aileach

THE STONE HOUSE OF THE SUN

THIS Donegal antiquity has been the quiet sentinel of Ireland, WITNESS to our shared history -

FROM the Tuatha Dé Danann to midnight mass, its a long-time fan of our stuff.

A temple for the sun god Baal,

THE original home of the O'Neill Clan, the site of Niall of the Nine Hostages conversion to Christianity by Old Man Patrick and the eventual hideaway for Catholics in penal times.

ARCHAEOLOGISTS also found a stone phallus there, for you stone-cold lovers out there.

IT'S been watching us a while okay so maybe give IT a listen HUH!?
