What is recorded here
Carnmanus is a prehistoric cairn lost somewhere in North East Division, County Antrim. Its stones may still bury a dead person or mark a boundary, but human hands have forgotten the exact spot. The landscape keeps the shape while memory releases the name.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as CAIRN: CARNMANUS (unlocated). Recorded period: PREHISTORIC; UNCERTAIN. 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.
