Mount Venus

Mount Venus (or Cill an Véineas in Irish) is a sacred megalithic site in Edmondstown, County Dublin, Ireland on the Mount Venus Road.

[1] The capstone lies against a single large upright megalith.

The other portal stone (15 feet long) lies next to the monument.

[2] Borlase believed this to be a distinct class of tomb - an earth-fast dolmen, so-called from the capstone's contact with the ground at the back (another example being Howth dolmen).

Access to this megalith is through a gap in a hedge beside the DSPCA on a site which was once a golf course.
