What is recorded here
Strangford Lower held a post-medieval settlement where people built, broke and rebuilt along the coast. The official record points to the centre of that archaeological site, not a single house or street. Whatever lived there, it left enough trace for the place to still be named.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as Historic Settlement Strangford. 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.
