What is recorded here

Deer Park Farms holds a standing stone from the prehistoric era, its exact age and purpose still uncertain. The stone rises beside ordinary farmland, marking a time when people shaped the landscape before written history. It may have guided ceremony, marked a boundary, or simply watched the fields change. Whatever it meant, it has survived every later hand that touched the earth around it.

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.

Likely dating to the Neolithic or Bronze Age, this standing stone may have served a ceremonial, astronomical, or territorial function. No specific folklore or detailed use is recorded for this site.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
