BATTLE SITE; 624 AD: BATTLE OF ARD CORAINN

What is recorded here

In 624 AD, the fields of Curran and Drumaliss in County Antrim became the bloody stage for the Battle of Ard Corainn, a violent clash that scarred the northern landscape. The earth there still holds the weight of that ancient fury, preserving the chaos of men and horses locked in mortal struggle. What remains is not a polished monument but a raw wound in the land, waiting for the stories swallowed by time to surface again.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as BATTLE SITE; 624 AD: BATTLE OF ARD CORAINN. Recorded period: E.CHRIST.. 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.
