Ballylumford Dolmen is situated on Islandmagee, County Antrim, Northern Ireland, near the north-west tip of the Islandmagee peninsula and near Ballylumford power station. It is known locally as the "Druid's Altar", and could be 4000 years old, or the remains of an even earlier passage grave. The dolmen consists of four upright stones, with a heavy capstone and a fallenstone within the structure. This may have been put there to block the entrance to the tomb. The dolmen is in the front garden of a house. A wall plaque at the site describes the dolmen as a single chambered grave erected about 2000-1600 BC. Local finds indicate occupation of the neighbourhood during the Bronze Age.

| - Der Dolmen von Ballylumford (auch „Druids Altar“ genannt) besteht aus drei Tragsteinen und einem Deckstein. Ein innerhalb der Kammer gefundener Stein kann der Verschlussstein sein. Vom ehemaligen Hügel haben sich keine Spuren erhalten, auch Funde sind nicht bekannt. James Fergusson (1808–1886) prägte für diese Unterart des Portal Tomb den Begriff „Tripod-Dolmen“ (Stativdolmen). Er wird auf Dolmen angewandt, bei denen der Deckstein auf drei Tragsteinen ruht (z. B. Ballykeel, Legananny, Proleek). Diese sind in der Region nicht selten. (de)

Er liegt nahe der Mill Bay im Vorgarten eines Hauses an der Ballylumford Road, der B90, im Townland Ballylumford (irisch Baile an Longfoirt) am Nordende der Halbinsel (Oileán Mhic Aodha) im County Antrim, in Nordirland.
