What is recorded here
One stone circle may have stood there before roads or farms, but no visible circle survives at the identified point. The official description still calls the place a stone circle, which means the stones were once important enough to remember and now resist finding. Lisnahunshin may hold only a buried alignment, a scattered ring or a mistaken marker.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as STONE CIRCLES (O.S. memoir site unlocated). Recorded period: 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.
