What is recorded here
Craigs, County Antrim, Ireland. A standing stone, prehistoric in origin, still occupies its recorded place. The uncertainty of its date does not reduce it; it withholds the story behind the stone. What is certain is that the stone remains visible, unbroken by time or forgetting.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as STANDING STONE. Recorded period: UNCERTAIN; PREHISTORIC. 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.
