What is recorded here
Cloighberragh is an unlocated Neolithic megalithic tomb in Kilrobert, County Antrim, known only through an old survey memo rather than a visible chamber. The name suggests a place where stones once marked death, memory or ownership, yet no one has re-found the tomb to test that claim. It may still lie beneath grass, roadworks or forgotten fieldwork, waiting for someone to stop believing that absence means erasure.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as MEGALITHIC TOMB: CLOUGHBERRAGH (O.S. memoir site; unlocated). Recorded period: NEOLITHIC; PREHISTORIC. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
Neolithic megalithic tomb, dating to the prehistoric period. Its significance lies in contributing to the understanding of early ceremonial and burial practices in the region, though its exact location remains unconfirmed.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
