What is recorded here
No visible tomb remains in Upper Tullykittagh, though the old survey still calls the lost place Giant's Grave. That absence is the shape of it: a prehistoric chamber reduced to a name, waiting for someone to imagine the dead it once held.
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 period. Its significance lies in its association with early monumental burial practices in the region, 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.
