STANDING STONE & BURIALS in Fruithill

STANDING STONE & BURIALS

What is recorded here

Fruithill holds a standing stone and burials from the prehistoric and medieval periods, marking death and memory across centuries. The stone still rises where bodies were placed, suggesting people returned to this spot long after first use. Its exact age remains uncertain, but its function is clear: a place for the dead and the living who remembered them.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as STANDING STONE & BURIALS. Recorded period: MED/L.MED; 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.
