What is recorded here
Knocknagarvan holds unlocated standing stones from the prehistoric era, preserved only in an official memoir rather than a visible marker. The absence of a exact point invites imagination about people who arranged stone before written record, while the official entry admits the site remains uncertain. What is known is that the place existed enough to be named, and what is lost is the exact ground where the stones stood.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as STANDING STONES (O.S. 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.
