What is recorded here
Forkhill in Carrickastickan remains a post-medieval settlement where human life clustered before modern borders drew their sharp lines. The ground still holds the shape of that choice: a place worth returning to, worth staying near, worth remembering.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as Historic Settlement Forkhill. 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.
