What is recorded here
Dunmakelter holds a prehistoric cairn where ancient hands stacked stone before written memory. The structure predates every human life now lost to time, yet it still marks the earth as a place of intention.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as CAIRN. Recorded period: PREHISTORIC; NEO/B.A.. 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.
