What is recorded here
Lagavara hides a prehistoric standing stone whose exact location has been lost to time and memory. The official record preserves only the name and a vague map point, leaving the stone itself unseen and unmarked. This absence turns the site into a ghost story about forgetting, where the stone may still stand buried under grass or gone entirely. The unknown location invites imagination rather than certainty, suggesting human memory can erase even the largest marks made on earth.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as STANDING STONE (O.S. memoir site; unlocated). 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.
