Garvagh Pullans Court Tomb

Marked 'County Cam' on the OS Revision of 1900. Part of this tomb is in the townland of Garvagh, Co. Tyrone. It is sited on a low ridge in poor pasture. A partly destroyed court on the NE ·gives entry to a gallery which consists of a short ante-chamber and a main chamber. A second chamber has apparently been destroyed. Three stones survive on the N side of the court and one on the S. The ante-chamber is c. 1m wide and c. 1.2m long. Two jambs separate it from the main chamber which is 3m long and 1.5m, 1.75m wide. A pair of jambs at the back of this chamber indicate the former existence of a second chamber. There are some roofing corbels in position on the N side of the gallery. The above description was derived from the 'Archaeological Survey of County Donegal. A description of the field antiquities of the County from the Mesolithic Period to the 17th century.' Compiled by: Brian Lacey with Eamon Cody, Claire Cotter, Judy Cuppage, Noel Dunne, Vincent Hurley, Celie O'Rahilly, Paul Walsh and Seán Ó Nualláin (Lifford: Donegal County Council, 1983).
