MEGALITHIC TOMB in Galboly Lower

MEGALITHIC TOMB

What is recorded here

Megalithic tomb in Galboly Lower, County Antrim: a chamber built of lifted stone before writing, before kingdoms, before the fields had their present names. It is the kind of place where the dead were not forgotten but shaped into the earth, and where the living may have gathered to remember, argue, feed dogs, or simply sit with the weight of time. The stones do not perform for tourists; they continue an old conversation.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as MEGALITHIC TOMB. Recorded period: PREHISTORIC. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
Megalithic tomb; likely Neolithic in date. Its significance lies in its contribution to understanding early prehistoric burial practices in the region.

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