What is recorded here
Removed from Crossgare before modern memory, the standing stone likely marked a boundary, a burial or a warning people still needed when the fields were young. Its absence does not erase the shape it once cut through the land. A missing stone can be a cleaner mirror than a broken one because it forces imagination to complete what measurement stopped.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as STANDING STONE (removed). 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.
