MOUND

MOUND, BURIAL VAULT

What is recorded here

MOUND - BURIAL VAULT stands in County Antrim, Ireland, preserving a chamber built for the dead long before written records named the living who placed them inside. The earth above may have hidden the vault from later feet, but it also protected the bones and intentions within. People walked past or avoided the rise, aware that something finished and sacred lay beneath the grass.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as MOUND - BURIAL VAULT. Recorded period: UNCERTAIN. 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.
