Three standing stones, possibly megalithic tomb, is a prehistoric megalithic monument located in County Fermanagh, Northern Ireland. The site consists of three upright stone slabs whose original purpose remains uncertain, though their megalithic character and configuration suggest possible association with a chambered burial monument of Neolithic or Early Bronze Age date. The stones reflect the tradition of monumental stone construction prevalent in Ulster during the fourth and third millennia before the present, a period when such megalithic structures served both funerary and communal functions. The site's archaeological significance lies in its contribution to understanding the distribution and variety of megalithic building practices across the region, though its specific dating and original structural form remain subjects for further investigation.
