What is recorded here

Court tomb in Browndod, County Antrim. Neolithic people built it, giant grave in local story, stones still standing under open sky. Maybe they buried a king, maybe a mountain spirit. Either way, they believed the dead needed a address large enough to remember.

The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as COURT TOMB: GIANT'S GRAVE. Recorded period: NEOLITHIC; PREHISTORIC. Recorded protection: Scheduled. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.

Court tomb, Neolithic period. It is part of a broader tradition of megalithic funerary architecture in Atlantic Europe, reflecting early communal burial practices and social organisation.
