What is recorded here
Westone Chapel stood in Ballyvaston during the medieval period, marking a Christian presence before the landscape forgot its exact coordinates. The building is gone, but the name remains, carrying a life of prayer and community that no longer has a address. What is lost is not nothing. The chapter ended, the memory continued, and Westone still belongs to the region even when the region stops searching for it.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as CHURCH SITE (unlocated): CHAPEL OF WESTONE. Recorded period: MEDIEVAL. 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.
