The undeveloped portal Tomb of Kilkeel (also called "the Crawtree Stone") is located in the north of the place Kilkeel (Irish Cill Chaoil ​​- "Church Caols" or "Church of the Narrow"), in the far south of County Down in Northern Ireland, near the Court Tomb of Dunnaman. Portal Tombs are megalithic installations in the British Isles where two equally tall, upright stones with a stone in between form the front of a chamber covered with a sometimes huge capstone. The megalithic site from the Neolithic (3000 to 2000 BC) is located on a gravel road in a field boundary. The approximately two meters high and 2.5 m long portal Tomb made of granite blocks is oriented to the south. The capstone is about 2.5 meters wide and 0.6 meters thick. It rests on two 1.3 m high and 0.8 m wide portal and two tilted side stones, which are about 1.5 m high and 1.2 m long; there is no endstone. The door stone is not original. The name Crawtree Stone is unusual for a grave. The mythological name "crawtree" refers to a tree of death and expresses an aspect of the Irish mother goddess. The Court Tomb of Dunnaman lies to the west and the Court Tomb of Moyad north of Kilkeel.
