What is recorded here
Three hearths and graves emerged near Mutton Burn, bright with coins and beads. People may have fed ancestors there, watching flame pull memory upward through Black Hill. The site resists pinpointing, but its parts remain clear: death, heat, gift, and witness.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as GRAVES; THREE HEARTHS with COINS & BEADS: MUTTON BURN (O.S. memoir site; unlocated). Recorded period: UNCERTAIN. 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.
