This case study mainly encompasses the Neolithic tradition of megalithic tomb building in Ireland and outlines a template methodology and framework for a more “holistic” approach to the archaeoastronomical assessment of measured axial orientations and their possible interpretation. Various approaches and the use of relevant analytical tools are described and supported with examples and selected findings.
