What is recorded here
Knock-Ranill is an unlocated cairn in Duncarbit, County Antrim, Ireland. Its shape may have marked a boundary, a burial or a warning to travellers, but no visible stone remains in the official record. The name still carries the weight of a place people knew enough to remember and preserve.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as CAIRN: KNOCK-RANILL (unlocated). Recorded period: 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.
