What is recorded here
Megalthic tomb stones still mark Tullykittagh Lower, though the exact grave has slipped from the memory of the land. People may have built it for a chief, a traveller or a giant, then walked away and let the field take back the shape of the work. The stones do not need a name to keep the dead company.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as MEGALITHIC TOMB: GIANT'S GRAVE (O.S. memoir site, unlocated). Recorded period: PREHISTORIC. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
Megalithic tomb, likely dating to the Neolithic or Early Bronze Age. Its significance lies in its association with megalithic funerary traditions, though its exact type and location remain undetermined.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
