What is recorded here
Lardven's Fort in Tullynacross, County Down, is an enclosure whose age and purpose remain uncertain. The name suggests a person called Lardven may have lived, worked or been remembered there, but no date or event is recorded. The land itself holds the shape of a fort, waiting for a story that time has not returned.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as ENCLOSURE: LARDVEN'S FORT. 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.
