Comment from SK53
Rather late in the day, but Wikipedia is hardly a suitable source for OSM as has been discussed ad nauseum. One significant reason is that, aside from licensing issues, wikipedia can get it wrong. In this case this is clearly not the location of Knockeen Portal Tomb (which is incorporated in a stone wall). It is however close to the site of Gaulstown Dolmen (somewhere in the woods to the E): clue being that this is the townland of Gaulstown & there is a dolmen which much better matches descriptions of Knockeen Portal Tomb visible on Bing at the same location as the Cromlech on GSGS 3906. Note this may be valid evidence for correcting wikipedia, but not OSM.
