What is recorded here
Skreen Church stood in Craig during the medieval and post-medieval periods, serving as a worship and burial place before disappearing from common memory. Its graveyard likely held generations of local families, their names lost but their presence still shaped the earth. The site remains marked only in official records now, yet the ground may still carry the weight of prayers, funerals and daily life from centuries ago.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as CHURCH & GRAVEYARD (site of): SKREEN CHURCH. Recorded period: MED/L.MED; POST-MED. 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.
