What is recorded here
Glynn Historic Settlement in County Antrim dates from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, marking a period when human presence transformed the local landscape. The exact boundary remains uncertain because the official point sits at the centre of a wider recorded area rather than a single building. That uncertainty preserves the settlement’s mystery, suggesting rooms, fields and roads that no longer answer back.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as Glynn Historic Settlement. Recorded period: C18TH/C19TH. 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.
