What is recorded here
GRAVEYARD (O.S. memoir site; unlocated) in Town Parks (ballycastle) may be a lost burial place, though no exact point remains visible. The official name preserves the function even when the boundary has vanished beneath grass, footpaths or forgotten rebuilds. In a town park, that uncertainty is not a flaw; it is the shape of memory itself. A graveyard may have given up its stones but not its purpose: to mark the difference between living land and remembered loss.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as GRAVEYARD (O.S. memoir site; unlocated). 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.
