What is recorded here

Drumanaquoile still holds its standing stone, a prehistoric marker in County Down. Whether it measured a field, marked a boundary or watched a road, the answer has been lost. The stone remains clear.

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.

Likely dating to the Neolithic or Bronze Age, this standing stone may have functioned as a boundary marker, ceremonial monument, or astronomical alignment feature. 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.
