MOUND & Man-made underground passage: SALLAGH FORT in Sallagh

MOUND & Man-made underground passage: SALLAGH FORT

What is recorded here

Sallagh Fort preserves a mound and underground passage in County Antrim, though its exact age remains uncertain. The chamber may have served as a shelter, treasury or ritual hole, while the mound marked the place above ground. Its buried shape still suggests that people valued depth, darkness and the hidden life below ordinary terrain.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as MOUND & Man-made underground passage: SALLAGH FORT. Recorded period: E.CHRIST.; 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.
