CAIRN in Cabragh

CAIRN

What is recorded here

Cabragh still holds a CAIRN from the PREHISTORIC dark, when people threw stone at what they loved, lost or feared. The exact age has vanished, but the act remains visible: hands, weight, memory and the choice to mark one point on Earth.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as CAIRN. Recorded period: UNCERTAIN; 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.
