What is recorded here
Killycough is a graveyard in Farranfad, County Down, where the dead have watched the living since before anyone thought to mark the spot. The ground may hold names no longer spoken, yet the stones still keep them company. That much is certain even when the date is not.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as GRAVEYARD: KILLYCLOUGH. 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.
