Megalithic tomb is a prehistoric burial monument located in County Fermanagh, Northern Ireland. The structure dates to the Neolithic period, representing one of the significant megalithic traditions of the fourth and third millennia BCE that characterised early agricultural communities across the island of Ireland. Such tombs typically consisted of stone-built chambers covered by earthen mounds or cairns, and functioned as communal burial places for multiple individuals over extended periods. The monument's designation within the Northern Ireland Sites and Monuments Record reflects its archaeological importance as evidence of prehistoric funerary practice and the monumental ambitions of Neolithic communities in the Ulster region.
