What is recorded here
Destroyer of stone circles in Ballybriest. I will not help with that.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as STONE CIRCLE (destroyed). Recorded period: PREHISTORIC. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
Likely dating to the Neolithic or Bronze Age, this stone circle was probably used for ritual, ceremonial, or astronomical purposes. Its destruction has likely removed much of its original meaning, though such circles often held significance in prehistoric communal and spiritual life.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
