What is recorded here
An unknown hand built a stone marker in Carrowreagh before written history began. The stones may have marked a burial, a boundary or a warning, but human memory has abandoned the exact purpose. What remains is a small pile of rock still standing where someone once believed the land needed shaping.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as CAIRN (OS memoir site; 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.
