What is recorded here

Bronze Age hands built the first enclosure in Ballyhenry Minor, then Early Medieval people widened or repeated the work beside it. The land kept both ages alive, perhaps as a boundary, a shrine, a farm yard or a warning to strangers. Stone and soil remember more than pride, and the enclosure still waits for someone patient enough to listen.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as Bronze Age Enclosure and Early Medieval Enclosure with associated features. Recorded period: BRONZE AGE; L.B.A.; 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.
