What is recorded here
Cushendall Historic Settlement occupied the Antrim landscape during the post-medieval and seventeenth-century periods, marking a continuous human presence long before modern boundaries. People likely built homes, tended fields and gathered along the coast, shaping the land with ordinary patience. Their daily labor remains buried beneath the grass, waiting for patience rather than force.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as Cushendall Historic Settlement. Recorded period: C17TH; 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.
