The National Monuments Service's description
At Knock International Airport. This possible megalithic tomb was included in the 1991 SMR (1991) and the 1996 RMP (1997) on the basis of information from a local source (SMR file). There is now no visible trace at ground level; it may have been destroyed during construction of the airport.
