Its stones remain scheduled, not as dead debris but as a warning that human life stretches farther than memory.

The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as COURT TOMB. 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.
