What is recorded here

Killreda in Ballynarry Lower is a lost church, graveyard and two holy wells, but no one has marked the exact spot since the old survey. The name suggests a red church or a place tied to a person called Reda, yet the buildings and boundary stones have vanished under grass, road work or simple forgetting. What remains is a gap in the local landscape where worship, burial and water should still be visible.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as CHURCH; GRAVEYARD; HOLY WELLS (2): KILLREDA (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.
