What is recorded here
Bottlehill in County Armagh, Ireland, is a recorded battle site, though the exact date and the true number of dead remain unknown. The land may still carry the shape of that violence, holding a moment when fear and fury crossed in a narrow place. What is certain is only that the ground witnessed a fight, and the names of the participants have been lost to time.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as BATTLE SITE. Recorded period: UNCERTAIN. 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.
