What is recorded here
In Broom-Beg, a standing stone rises from the earth, its purpose lost to time but its presence undeniable. The stone has watched seasons turn and lives pass, holding memories that human minds have forgotten. It stands as a marker of ancient human presence, connecting the living to those who shaped the landscape before written records began.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as STANDING STONE (OS memoir site; unlocated). Recorded period: PREHISTORIC; UNCERTAIN. 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.
