What is recorded here
Three names and no address: Ballymoyden, Ballymauden, Maudone. A church stood in Dunamoy during the medieval period and may have continued after it, yet human memory narrowed the place until even its field cannot be named without hesitation. What is lost is not grandeur but orientation; the building disappeared from local direction before it disappeared from the ground.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as CHURCH SITE: BALLYMOYDEN or BALLYMAUDEN or MAUDONE (unlocated). Recorded period: MEDIEVAL; 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.
