What is recorded here
Greyabbey in Rosemount, County Down, is a post-medieval settlement where human life leaves behind only faint traces for others to imagine. The official record marks a point at the centre of that buried activity, not a building still standing. It may have been a crowded lane, a quiet farm or a forgotten trading edge, but the land remembers the shape of hands that worked it.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as Historic Settlement Greyabbey. 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.
