What is recorded here
Magesh Room and the standing stone vanished before records began. What remains is a hollow point on a map, marking the exact place where human hands shaped stone and time erased it. The loss is not absence of evidence but absence of the thing itself.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as STANDING STONE (destroyed). 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.
