What is recorded here
Drumsladhe remains an unlocated burial ground in Slaghtaverty, County Derry, preserved only through an old survey memoir rather than a visible marker. The name itself suggests a quiet valley where dead people were laid to rest before human memory faded. It may still hold bones beneath grass, heather or road clay, waiting for someone to listen for the shape of the field instead of searching for a stone.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as BURIAL GROUND: DRUMSLADHE (O.S. memoir site, unlocated). 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.
