What is recorded here
Mud, marrow and memory belong to Laraghshankill now. The church and graveyard vanished before human records began, leaving only a shape in the earth and a map point above it. Whatever prayers were spoken there have fed the soil, and whatever names were spoken have fed the wind. The site still holds the shape of devotion, even when every human trace has erased itself.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as CHURCH & GRAVEYARD (site of). 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.
