This megalithic structure is called a wedge tomb. It was constructed at the end of the Neolithic/Stone age.

A wedge tomb is a burial place. You can see the large stones with a slopping roof slab or capstone.

It is believed that this tomb was strategically placed by our ancestors to face the setting sun of the Winter solstice.

Also, if you glance from here to the cairn situated on top of the Cuilcagh mountain, you can see Calf House Dolmen and a sandstone boulder presented in a line.

This monument is believed to have originally been a portal tomb/dolmen, which is a burial place.

It was changed by farmers in the 19th century into this calf house. Neolithic farmers moved the capstone to create the doorway you see in the picture.

Farmers used this monument to shelter their calves.
