The sites of Clontygora are within just a few hundred metres of the Irish Border, something unfortunately in the news at the moment. Although somewhat mutilated, this court tomb is still very impressive, with most of the forecourts massive orthostats surviving. Similarly large sidestone delineate what is left of the gallery which has 3 chambers, the first of which has a slipped lintel and a large capstone over 3 metres long partly-supported by corbel-stones.
