Menhirs of Duncarbit
The menhirs of Duncarbit in County Antrim in Northern Ireland are a slender pair of stones, believed to be the remainder of a row of stones , which stands 0.5 km southeast of Killuca Bridge, about eight kilometers east of Armoy in the Moyle District, near the north coast. The local name of the menhirs "Slaght Standing Stones" indicates a former grave site.
Nearby is the Knocklayd (hill), on it, bordered by overturned curbs, the four-meter-high Carn an Truagh or Cairn of Woe with a diameter of about 20.0 meters.
