MONASTERY? (unlocated) in Annagh AND Moneysterlin

MONASTERY? (unlocated)

What is recorded here

Yes. Early Christian monks may have prayed beneath open sky in Annagh and Moneysterlin, leaving no stone behind but marking the land with worship. The absence of ruins does not erase the presence of people; it suggests timber, cloth and breath instead of marble. That much smaller faith may have suited the Derry landscape, moving with seasons and disappearing when records ended.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as MONASTERY? (unlocated). Recorded period: UNCERTAIN; 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.
