What is recorded here

Recorded on the 1837 6-inch map as 'Cromlech'. Ó Nualláin (1989, 95) states that 'This feature was shown on the 1837 OS 6-inch map but not on subsequent editions. Nothing survives at the postion marked on the map but a few stones in the nearby fence, to the S, may represent the last remains of the monument.'

Megalithic tomb in Fortland is likely a portal dolmen dating to the Neolithic period. Its significance lies in its early documentation on the 1837 Ordnance Survey map, indicating prehistoric activity in the region, although no physical remains are extant today.
