What is recorded here
Ursula's Fort in Ballyleidy, County Down, is an enclosed place whose human history has slipped from memory. The land may have been held, worked or forgotten before names were lost. What remains is a boundary drawn in earth, waiting for the story that built it to return.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as ENCLOSURE: URSULA'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.
