The equinox alignment event at Cairn T, the passage tomb that crowns the hilltop of Carnbane East at Loughcrew. Photographs taken on 20th March 2007.
Unlike the winter solstice at Newgrange, the equinox event at Loughcrew is very informal and anyone who makes the cold, hard trek up the hillside before dawn will be rewarded with a few moments inside to view the alignment, if the sun makes a fairly rare appearance of course. Small groups are allowed in for some time before leaving to allow others to witness the event.
