236 Gray- — Irish Cromlechs . 
5 . BALLYVENAGHT CROMLECH, BALLYCASTLE. 
Sketch No. 8. 
This cromlech is about eighty yards north of No. 4. The 
sketch is taken looking south-west, and shows No. 4 Cromlech 
in the distance. The top stone measures 13ft. 4 in. by n ft. 
6 in., and is about three feet thick. The supporting stones have 
given way, and are crushed under the ponderous cap stone. The 
site is a swampy moorland, at the head of the valley of the Cary 
river. This and the last cromlech are almost overgrown with 
peat. 
6. CLOGHS CROMLECH, CUSHENDALL. 
Sketch No. 9. 
In the townland of Cloghs, to the west of Cushendall and 
about one and a half miles from the village, there is a cromlech 
with a chamber four feet long and three feet four inches wide, 
formed of six blocks of stone. The cap stone is turned over 
from its original position, otherwise the monument is in fair 
condition. There were other stone monuments in the vicinity, 
but they have been destroyed. A rude stone circle and avenue 
occurs on the mountain slope one mile west from the road to 
Cushendun. It is locally known as “ Ossian’s grave.” The 
site commands an extensive prospect : from it the Scotch and 
Irish headlands can be seen, and is well worthy of a visit. 
7 . TICLOY CROMLECH. 
Sketch No. 10. 
In the townland of Ticloy — i.e., The Stone House there are 
two cromlechs in the same field, the most perfect being the 
subject of our sketch. The second is shown in the background. 
The name of the townland is derived from this monument, 
which still retains the appearance of a stone house. It is well 
situated on Ticloy hill, above Ticloy water, about five miles to 
the west of Glenarm, and ten miles east by north of Ballymena. 
The land is cultivated all round the site, but the farming 
operations are carefully conducted, so as not to damage the 
monument in any way.
