Summer Solstice Sunrise at Townleyhall

Townleyhall passage tomb is located just north of the large passage tombs at Newgrange, Knowth and Dowth. It is smaller and more basic in design than it's bigger neighbours. On the mornings around the Summer Solstice, Townleyhall is a special place with the passage and chamber aligned with the rising sun.
