What is recorded here
Lisnamanny holds a standing stone from the prehistoric era, its exact age still uncertain. The stone marks an ancient human presence long before written records reached County Antrim. It may have guided ritual, marked a boundary, or simply watched the land change around it.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as STANDING STONE. Recorded period: PREHISTORIC; UNCERTAIN. 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 functioned as a boundary marker, ritual monument, or astronomical alignment feature. No specific folklore or detailed use is recorded for this site.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
