What is recorded here
North West Ballycarry holds a graveyard whose age and owners have slipped from memory. The land has absorbed every name and date that once marked it, leaving only the shape of loss behind. People may have buried their dead there before records began, then vanished so completely that even the graves forgot their purpose.
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.
