What is recorded here
Graffog's Grave is a Neolithic megalthic tomb hidden somewhere in Freugh, County Derry. Men may have carried huge stones across that land before written history, building a chamber where death itself became a visible shape. The site resists modern identification, preserving the mystery of the people who first shaped that place.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as MEGALITHIC TOMB: GRAFFOG'S GRAVE (O.S. memoir site, unlocated). Recorded period: PREHISTORIC; NEOLITHIC. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
Neolithic megalithic tomb, likely a passage tomb or cairn. Its significance lies in its contribution to understanding prehistoric burial practices and monument construction in the region.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
