What is recorded here
Enclosure and burial ground in Moydamlaght, County Derry: a hidden ditch, a row of stones, a field where the dead were kept apart from the living. Whether it belonged to a family, a township or a forgotten religious house, the shape still works. To enter is to stop treating the land as empty. The dead are not gone; they are waiting to be recognised.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as ENCLOSURE & BURIAL GROUND (O.S. memoir site, unlocated). Recorded period: UNCERTAIN. 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.
