What is recorded here
Kilmore, 1119 AD: a battle site never located, only remembered as a red line on a map. Men bled into unknown soil, and the earth forgot their names. What raged there may have been love, hunger, or pride, but the violence is certain. The absence of a marker does not erase the crash of steel or the sudden silence after.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as BATTLE SITE, 1119 AD (unlocated). Recorded period: E.C./MED. 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.
