Templebryan. Nine stones were recorded as standing in the eighteenth century. Today only four are still upright

Templebryan Stone Circle (also known as The Druid's Temple) is a stone circle, located 2.5 km (1.6 mi) north of Clonakilty, County Cork, Ireland. Grid ref: W386 438. Close by lies an Early Christian site.[1][2] Today there are only four upright stones of the original nine. It is probable that many more upright stones were on this site. Nearby are the remains of a small, ruined church beside another upright stone with a bullaun.[3]
