What is recorded here
Magheradrool in County Down holds a church, graveyard and enclosure that have watched the same ground through medieval and modern centuries. People may have prayed, buried their dead and marked the boundary long before written records appeared. The stones and soil still belong to that continuous human life.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as MEDIEVAL & MODERN CHURCH & GRAVEYARD with ENCLOSURE : MAGHERADROOL. Recorded period: POST-MED; LATE-MED; MEDIEVAL; UNCERTAIN; MODERN. Recorded protection: Scheduled. 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.
