What is recorded here
One is tempted to picture a giant falling in Drumeltan, but more likely the hole marked a souterrain: a stone-lined passage people used for storage, refuge, or escape. Either way, the grave in the name does not diminish the wonder. It records how ordinary human ingenuity can sound mythical once the living stop explaining it.
Giant's Grave is recorded as a archaeological place in County Cavan. Its open map record supplies this location and any linked names or public references.
