What is recorded here

Markstown, Kilmakevit or Kilmachevet in Cullybackey, County Antrim, holds a church, graveyard, underground passage, bullaun and bell from an uncertain early Christian time. The underground passage may have let people move through hill or weather while the bell called them back to the church. The bullaun and graveyard suggest the place was used for prayer, memory and everyday survival.

The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as CHURCH; GRAVEYARD; Man-made underground passage; BULLAUN; BELL: MARKSTOWN or KILMAKEVIT or KILMACHEVET. Recorded period: E.CHRIST.; UNCERTAIN. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
