What is recorded here
Megalithic tombs and a stone circle mark Ballyholly, preserving alignment and burial practices from the prehistoric period. Their scheduled status acknowledges that human hands shaped the landscape long before written history. The stones still stand as witnesses to lives that vanished without records.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as STONE CIRCLE; ALIGNMENT; MEGALITHIC TOMBS: CROMLECHS. 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.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
