What is recorded here

Church Hill in Duncrun holds a carved cross and the buried shape of an early Christian church, marking the place where faith first took root on that ground. The stone still stands beside the brae, waiting for hands to read its edges and remember the people who chipped it free. What was spoken there has faded, but the cross remains, pointing upward through centuries of forgotten prayer.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as CHURCH SITE & CROSS CARVED STONE: CHURCH HILL or CANON'S BRAE. Recorded period: E.CHRIST.; UNCERTAIN; MED/L.MED. Recorded protection: Scheduled. 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.
