What is recorded here
The fort in Lurganagoose stands as an enclosed place in County Derry, its age uncertain but its boundary clear. Whether people lived inside, prayed inside or merely kept animals from the worst of the weather, the stones still suggest a time when belonging required a visible edge. That edge may have marked family, faith or fear, yet the fort remains a quiet claim that someone once shaped the land into a room large enough for a life.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as ENCLOSURE: THE 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.
