What is recorded here
No visible trace remains in Ballyoran, County Down, although an Anglo-Norman vill once stood there during the medieval period. The official point marks the centre of that lost archaeological site, preserving the shape of a human settlement now reduced to a coordinate.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as ANGLO-NORMAN VILL. Recorded period: MEDIEVAL. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
