What is recorded here
MOUND is a medieval earthwork in County Antrim, Ireland, possibly a motte castle. Its uncertain identity preserves the danger of inventing history. A person may have stood on that buried ridge, watched the valley, and disappeared into the ordinary flow of life.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as MOUND - MOTTE?. Recorded period: MEDIEVAL; 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.
