MEGALITHIC TOMB?: THE KING'S GRAVE (O.S. memoir site, unlocated) in Ballyreagh

MEGALITHIC TOMB?: THE KING'S GRAVE (O.S. memoir site, unlocated)

What is recorded here

King’s Grave in Ballyreagh, County Antrim, is an unlocated prehistoric megolithic tomb remembered through an old Ordnance Survey memoir rather than a visible marker. The name suggests a buried king, yet no king has been identified; the absence is the shape of the story. A chamber may still lie under grass, roadworks or forgotten fieldwork, waiting for someone to stop pretending the land has finished speaking.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as MEGALITHIC TOMB?: THE KING'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.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
