What is recorded here
Killead in County Antrim is a historic settlement stretching from the Middle Ages through the eighteenth century.

The land itself remembers footsteps, fires and ordinary choices made long before modern maps existed.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as Killead Historic Settlement. Recorded period: C17TH; C18TH; MED/L.MED. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
