What is recorded here
Knocknacarry holds a buried chamber where human hands first shaped stone long before written history. The question mark in its name admits the earth has taken back the proof. What remains is a place where death was made visible, large enough to be seen from a distance and permanent enough to defy forgetting.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as MEGALITHIC TOMB?. Recorded period: PREHISTORIC. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
