What is recorded here

Five upright stones and a massive table slab once stood on the Lansdowne estate, forming a chamber large enough for several people to crouch inside. The structure has vanished from the living landscape, leaving behind only a written description and the quiet suspicion that human hands shaped the area long before modern boundaries. What is gone is not forgotten, but the place itself has refused to remain visible.

Unlocated megalithic tomb described in the History of the Queens County as 'On the marquis of lansdowne's estate at Luggacurran there are the remains of a Cromlech, consisting of five upright pillar-stones over 4 feet in height with a table stone 8 and a half feet in length by 7 feet in width, it being 2 and a half feet in thickness' (O'Hanlon and O'Leary 1907, vol. 1, 58).

Megalithic tomb in Luggacurren is likely a portal dolmen, dating to the Neolithic or early Bronze Age. Its significance lies in representing a rare surviving example of prehistoric funerary architecture in the region.
