HISTORIC SETTLEMENT: BALLYCASTLE in Town Parks Ballycastle — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

Ballycastle emerged during the late medieval and post-medieval periods, sustaining human life along the northern coast long before modern boundaries existed. The settlement likely served as a gathering place for trade, fishing or shelter, connecting people to the sea and each other through generations. Its streets and fields may have shifted repeatedly, yet the core purpose remained unchanged: a living community shaped by the landscape and the needs of those who called it home.

The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as HISTORIC SETTLEMENT: BALLYCASTLE. Recorded period: LATE-MED; POST-MED. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
