What is recorded here
Salloon still holds a standing stone from the prehistoric dark. It is not a showpiece or a modern gift; it is a local marker that has watched the land change around it. People may have passed it during feast, flight, birth or burial, and it still stands because that much of life is no longer certain.
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.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
