Tirnony, county Derry C 840 017 - Sheet 8 Nearest village: Maghera This charming little dolmen is remarkable for the free-standing orthostat, 1.8 metres high, which is beside one of the portal-stones (on the right in the photograph). This suggests a derivation from or mingling with the court-tomb tradition. The picturesque capstone tilts at the usual angle, and behind it is a well-defined square chamber.   This is a winter view. A summer view (taken some 20 years later) is below.
