What is recorded here
Munie North holds a standing stone from the uncertain prehistoric period. The stone still stands where people first set it, unchanged while empires rose and fell around it. It does not need a date to be ancient.
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 meaning is recorded for this site.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
