What is recorded here
Killylane holds a buried field system and settlement from the early Christian period, its boundaries lost beneath grass and time. The land may have supported ordinary lives, perhaps marked by prayer or seasonal labour, yet no exact date or named event remains. What is certain is that people shaped this ground before memory faded, leaving only a hidden grid waiting beneath the soil.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as FIELD SYSTEM & SETTLEMENT SITE. Recorded period: UNCERTAIN; 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.
