What is recorded here
Kilmakee may have once held a standing stone, though no one now knows where. The question mark in its own name admits the gap: a place remembered as a marker, lost to time or forgetting. If the stone still stands buried or hidden, it waits without warning. If it never existed, the mystery belongs to the person who first believed it did. Either way, Kilkeep keeps an absent shape alive.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as STANDING STONE? (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.
