What is recorded here
Tullyvallan in County Armagh may hold megalithic tombs, though uncertainty still shadows the claim. If true, people lifted huge stones there to mark death or memory before written history arrived. The field would have carried the weight of that choice, while witnesses forgot the names of everyone who watched.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as POSSIBLE MEGALITHIC TOMBS. Recorded period: UNCERTAIN. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
Possible megalithic tombs; date uncertain, but likely Neolithic in origin. Their significance lies in their potential contribution to understanding early funerary practices and megalithic architecture in Northern Ireland.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
