THREE STANDING STONES possibly MEGALITHIC TOMB or STONE CIRCLE in Eshbralley

THREE STANDING STONES possibly MEGALITHIC TOMB or STONE CIRCLE

What is recorded here

Three stones still stand in Eshbralley, County Fermanagh, perhaps marking a buried tomb or a forgotten circle from the prehistoric dark. They defy easy classification, resisting the urge to become a simple fact. Maybe they are tomb stones for a nameless dead person, or boundary markers for a field that no longer exists. Their ambiguity is the point: they preserve the shape of a loss so complete that even their purpose has become a question.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as THREE STANDING STONES possibly MEGALITHIC TOMB or STONE CIRCLE. 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.
