    About Ballylumford Dolmen

    Somewhat unexpectedly found in the front garden of a listed, mid 19th-century house and popularly known as the Druid’s Altar, this may be a portal tomb, a neolithic burial monument now denuded of its cairn (covering mound of stones), or the remains of a passage tomb.
