FORTIFIED HOUSE & ?BAWN (unlocated): MOSES HILL'S HOUSE in Malone Lower — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

Moses Hill's house in Malone Lower still carries the shape of a fortified dwelling, though no wall or gate remains visible to mark the boundary. The post-medieval setting suggests a family bold enough to build defensiveness into domestic life, perhaps watching roads or resisting neighbours. Whatever the house defended, it did so without leaving a ruin proud enough for tourists.

The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as FORTIFIED HOUSE & ?BAWN (unlocated): MOSES HILL'S HOUSE. Recorded period: POST-MED. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.

Moses Hill's House in Malone Lower was a fortified house built in the post-medieval period, likely by a local landowner for defensive purposes. It is remembered as an example of early domestic architecture in the Malone area, reflecting the settlement patterns and security needs of the time.
