What is recorded here

Island Taggart is a one-mile islet in Strangford Lough where ten thousand year old flint tools still lie scattered beside ruined stone kelp kilns and forgotten farming walls. The National Trust acquired it in 1985, pulling it back from private neglect and exposing a layered human life that stretched from Mesolithic foragers to colonial settlers. It is not a polished museum or a postcard island. It is a drowned-edge archive, still wet, still sharp, still waiting for people willing to walk its broken lines and listen.
Island Taggart is recorded as a islet in County Down. Its open map record supplies this location and any linked names or public references.
