STANDING STONE in Lisnavaghrog

STANDING STONE

What is recorded here

Lisnavaghrog holds a standing stone from the uncertain prehistoric dark. Whether it marked a boundary, a burial or a warning, the answer has vanished. A person may have struck it in anger or touched it in fear, but no name survives to confirm the act. The stone still stands while human memory retreats.
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 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.
