What is recorded here
Ballynoe in Legamaddy, County Down, holds a post-medieval settlement where human life repeated itself across generations. The ground remembers footsteps, hearth smoke and ordinary choices made under open sky. What is lost has not disappeared, but waited inside the soil for someone to imagine it again.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as Historic Settlement Ballynoe. Recorded period: POST-MED. 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.
