Not quite........The 8th of December 2010 versus the 21st December. I got the better dawn as on the 21st it was a dull grey day with no Sunrise! Newgrange in the Boyne Valley, Co. Meath is a 5000 year old passage tomb famous for the Winter solstice illumination which lights up the passage and Chamber. Newgrange is part of a complex of monuments built along a bend of the River Boyne known collectively as Brú na Bóinne. The other two principal monuments are Knowth (the largest) and Dowth, but throughout the region there are as many as 35 smaller mounds.
