What is recorded here
Ballyharvy Lower holds a graveyard whose age and owners have slipped from memory. The land may have swallowed whole families, whole centuries, whole languages of prayer. What is certain is that the dead are still there, beneath the grass, waiting for someone to remember them.
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.
