What is recorded here
No certain date or owner is recorded for the Ballydurnian graveyard in County Antrim, Ireland. The official map point sits at the centre of the archaeological site, while the lives buried there have faded from the facts. It may have served a small parish, a passing family or a forgotten community, and the absence of a date does not diminish the dead. The stones, soil and memory remain even when the name and time are lost.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as GRAVEYARD. 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.
