What is recorded here

Cairn in Clagan, County Derry: possibly a megalithic tomb, prehistoric, uncertain in exact form. A man may have carried stones from the field edge and set them around a dead person, making the landscape remember what water and time erase. The uncertainty is not a flaw; it is the shape of the place.

The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as CAIRN, possibly MEGALITHIC TOMB. Recorded period: PREHISTORIC; UNCERTAIN. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
