What is recorded here
Rowantree Cairn is an unlocated memory in County Antrim, preserved only through a map point and a name rather than stones, shape or visible remains. That absence makes it a living question: someone saw enough to record it, and time or forgetting removed the rest. It belongs to human memory before official certainty, a place that resisted measurement and continued inside the story of the land.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as CAIRN: ROWANTREE CAIRN (O.S. memoir site, 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.
