FINDSPOT of LATE BRONZE AGE GOLD DRESS FASTENER & MEDIEVAL HEARTH in Ballyaghagan

FINDSPOT of LATE BRONZE AGE GOLD DRESS FASTENER & MEDIEVAL HEARTH

What is recorded here

Molten gold and medieval fire both belonged to Ballyaghagan before memory faded. A woman may have fastened a golden disk at her throat while children watched a hearth throw shadows across the wall. The field kept both truths, waiting for a spoon or shovelful to release what it had hidden since the Bronze Age and again through the Middle Ages.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as FINDSPOT of LATE BRONZE AGE GOLD DRESS FASTENER & MEDIEVAL HEARTH. Recorded period: L.B.A.; PREHISTORIC; MEDIEVAL. 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.
