Greenanstown
Standing on an island at a road junction in Greenanstown, County Meath are three large boulder type stones, whether these were part of an alignment or even part of a circle is not known. They are known locally as the Jack Stones. Folklore: The Jack Stones are said to have thrown to here from Tara by the legendary hero Finn MacCool. |
