Parknasilloge
The megalithic site of Parknasilloge is not classified. It could be a stone box or a broken wedge tomb as there are a number of small boulders in and around the chamber. Some may have formed part of the structure. The megalithic complex is located on a gentle slope on the southwest side of the Glencullen valley, northwest of Enniskerry in the townland Parknasilloge ( Irish Páirc na Saileog , "field of willows") in County Wicklow in Ireland .
It can be a megalithic box with a 1.6 meter capstone supported by two long slabs. The two end plates have been moved. It stands in the middle of a cairn about 7.0 m in diameter and 0.5 m high, which is slightly flattened on the west side.
The Menhir of Glencullen is about 3 miles northwest of County Dublin . The quartz stone on the edge of a golf course with a height of 1.83 m is known locally as "Queen Mab".
