@Ceili,
Is it an ancient Viking burial site?

@Ceili,
Can find plenty of ancient stone burial chamber/vaults in the UK but not this one. What is so significant about this particular one?

Well, not really and Ceili was right saying UK.

County Down, where Massfort is located, is part of Northern Ireland, hence UK.

Check these coordinates:
Latitude: 54° 4' 7.76" N
Longitude: 6° 1' 50.78" W

Yes... exactly, great detective work to all.
I took the picture above. It's also called Dunnaman Court Tomb, on the Massforth Church grounds, in Co. Down. They are believed to be the oldest in Ireland, maybe even the world. They've long since lost their Cairns and are in a very lonely, hidden place.
My family comes from just up the road.
I do believe you're next Dutchy...

@Ceili,
It's located next to a Catholic Church. The archaeological site has been visited off and on for some years now. There seems to be three separate sections to the tomb.

My mom was baptized in the church.
There are some very interesting ancient sites in the area.

El Tajo gorge, Ronda, Seville Spain.

This is gorgeous. I have always wanted to go to Spain.

@Ceili,
Spain is a fascinating country, because different areas of Spain feels like another country. The first time I went to Spain was in the mid-fifties when the cost of almost everything was cheap. Now that Spain is a Euro country, they have seen everything increase in price.
