What is recorded here
Mulligan’s rough black rock still holds the shape of hands that broke it into pieces. The Loup remains a post-medieval settlement in Ballymulligan, County Derry, not a polished monument but a place where human life worked the land and left its mark behind.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as Historic Settlement The Loup. 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.
