What is recorded here
Gransha holds an urn burial from the prehistoric era, marking a moment when human hands shaped clay for death rather than life. The vessel may have carried ashes, bones or memory into soil now forgotten. Its loss does not erase the act of preparing it.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as FINDSPOT of URN BURIAL. Recorded period: PREHISTORIC. 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.
