What is recorded here
Larne, Latherne, Lacharne and Dunmalys name one settlement stretching from medieval to modern times in Curran and Drumalys. Its changing spellings suggest a place spoken often enough for identity to blur at the edges. People may have lived there through every storm and season while the name shifted like breath on water.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as HISTORIC SETTLEMENT: LARNE or LATHERNE or LACHERNE or DUNMALYS. Recorded period: POST-MED; MODERN; LATE-MED; MEDIEVAL. 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.
