What is recorded here

Meltwater may have revealed the stone or men may have pulled it from a trench, but no hand is recorded on either act. The uncertainty is not a gap, it is the shape of the place: a stone still standing while every account of its arrival refused to tighten.

The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as STANDING STONE. Recorded period: UNCERTAIN; PREHISTORIC. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.

Likely dating to the Neolithic or Bronze Age, this standing stone may have served a ceremonial, astronomical, or territorial function. No specific folklore or detailed meaning is recorded for this site.

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