HOUSE & BAWN: WOODVILLE HOUSE in Dougher

HOUSE & BAWN: WOODVILLE HOUSE

What is recorded here

Woodville House stands in Dougher, County Armagh, beside a bawn that has watched the land since Neolithic footsteps first pressed into the soil. Its rooms may have held candlelight, argument, birth and burial across centuries, while the bawn contained livestock, carts and the ordinary weight of living. The house does not need a heroic story because it is a continuous one, still occupying the same earth and still shaping the breath of the people around it.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as HOUSE & BAWN: WOODVILLE HOUSE. Recorded period: C17TH; PREHISTORIC; NEOLITHIC; E.CHRIST.. 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.
