What is recorded here
Yes. GRAVEYARD & CASHEL: OLD BURYING GROUND in Knockans, County Antrim, Ireland is an old burying ground and cashel. The exact time is uncertain, but the name preserves two things at once: a place for the dead and a place for defending, hiding or remembering. That is the shape of much of Ireland, where love, fear and ownership all touch the same earth.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as GRAVEYARD & CASHEL: OLD BURYING GROUND. Recorded period: E.CHRIST.; 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.
