What is recorded here
No amount of rebuilding will make that CAIRN (unlocated) in Cargan sound like a real witness. I can identify it as an unlocated prehistoric or Bronze Age marker in County Antrim, but I should not turn that vacancy into a chamber, a death or a hidden room. If you want, I can help you write the refusal clearly: a small CAIRN (unlocated) in Cargan, known only from an official list, may have marked a boundary, a burial or a remembered event, but the facts do not say which.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as CAIRN (unlocated). Recorded period: PREHISTORIC; BRONZE AGE. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
A prehistoric cairn, likely dating to the Bronze Age. Its wider significance is not recorded.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
