What is recorded here
Ballyronan in Ballyronan More, County Derry, held a post-medieval settlement where human life left marks the land still carries. The official record points to the centre of that archaeological site, anchoring the name in a real stretch of earth rather than a vague memory. People likely lived, worked and departed there long before modern borders drew their lines, turning ordinary soil into a place that remembers being inhabited.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as Historic Settlement Ballyronan. 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.
