What is recorded here
Stone lined the grave before Christ walked the earth, though the exact year has faded from memory. The chamber still stands in County Down, waiting for the name of the dead person it swallowed.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as BURIAL in STONE LINED GRAVE. Recorded period: E.CHRIST.. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
