What is recorded here
St. John's in Mullaghbrack layers early Christian, medieval and modern worship inside one graveyard, proving the field has fed the living and buried the dead for centuries. The ground remembers every prayer spoken above it, while unnamed bodies sleep beneath the grass. People may have walked this spot before written history, leaving no name but changing the soil with their breath.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as MULTIPERIOD CHURCH SITE & GRAVEYARD: ST. JOHN'S. Recorded period: MODERN; POST-MED; MED/L.MED; 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.
