TWO STANDING STONES

TWO STANDING STONES, MEGALITHIC TOMB?

What is recorded here

Two stones still stand in County Fermanagh, perhaps marking a burial place from before written history. They are small enough to overlook and old enough to outlast every kingdom that later claimed the land. A question mark in their name admits what the shapes resist: whether they are a tomb, a boundary, or a forgotten gift, the stones keep that answer hidden.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as TWO STANDING STONES - 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.
A Neolithic megalithic tomb, likely dating to the 4th–3rd millennium BCE. Its significance lies in its potential as a rare surviving example of megalithic funerary architecture in the region.

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