ROUND CAIRN in Cloghtogle

ROUND CAIRN

What is recorded here

No visible mound remains in Cloghtogle, only the memory of a round cairn marked on official maps. That absence is not a mistake but a transformation. The stones may have scattered across the fields or been absorbed into other walls, carrying the purpose of the original build into new shapes. What is missing on the ground is still present in the identity of the place.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as ROUND CAIRN. Recorded period: PREHISTORIC. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
Round cairn, dating to the Neolithic or Bronze Age period. These cairns are significant as they often served as burial monuments or ritual sites, reflecting early ceremonial practices in the region.
