What is recorded here
ENCLOSURE: MASS FORTH in Ballybeg, County Antrim, Ireland, stands as a mapped archaeological point, yet its age and purpose remain uncertain. The official record offers no date, no builder, no event, no human name, and no explanation for why the place exists. What is known is only that it is marked, that it is called an enclosure, and that Mass Forth is written beside it. Beyond that, the land keeps its own silence.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as ENCLOSURE: MASS FORTH. 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.
