What is recorded here
Ballybrolly still holds the buried shape of an abbey and the settlement that gathered around it. The stones may be gone, but the ground remembers the hands that built, prayed and lived there.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as ENCLOSURE & SETTLEMENT SITE: ABBEY RUIN. Recorded period: E.CHRIST.. 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.
