STANDING STONES (2) (REMAINS OF MEGALITHIC TOMB) in Ballyloughlin

STANDING STONES (2) (REMAINS OF MEGALITHIC TOMB)

What is recorded here

Two stones still stand in Ballyloughlin, the broken edge of a tomb built before written memory. They are not a complete chamber, nor a formal alignment, which is why the place resists a simple answer. In a small county crowded with ancient marks, they remain a reminder that human hands shaped the land long before modern borders drew its lines.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as STANDING STONES (2) (REMAINS OF MEGALITHIC TOMB). Recorded period: PREHISTORIC. Recorded protection: Scheduled. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
Megalithic tomb, likely dating to the Neolithic period. Its scheduled protection indicates archaeological significance, though specific details on function or cultural context remain limited.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
