Annadorn Dolmen is a dolmen sited at the Buck's Head near Loughinisland, in the townland of Annadorn [1]. The dolmen has a large, low, slightly displaced capstone about 65 cm thick covering a rectangular chamber and supported by three stones about 60 cm high [1]. An account of 1802 suggests that it was formerly set beneath a large rectangular cairn 60 ft in diameter and approached by a lintelled passage, so it could be the remains of a passage grave [1]. The 1802 account also says the chamber under the capstone contained ashes and a number of bones [1].
