What is recorded here
Saval-Bregagh is an unlocated medieval graveyard hidden somewhere in Ballysugagh, County Down. Its exact position has been lost, but the name still points to a place where people once laid their dead beneath open sky. The absence of a marker does not erase the function of the ground; it only removes the chance to stand beside it.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as GRAVEYARD: SAVAL-BREGAGH (unlocated). Recorded period: UNCERTAIN; MEDIEVAL. 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.
