NEOLITHIC SETTLEMENT & INDUSTRIAL SITE in Ballygalley

NEOLITHIC SETTLEMENT & INDUSTRIAL SITE

What is recorded here

Molten glass and struck flint still scatter the Ballygalley soil, marking a Neolithic workshop where people lived and made tools before written history. The site preserved both domestic and industrial activity, suggesting busy hands rather than passive observation. Its exact layout has faded, but the concentration of material implies repeated return and practical skill.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as NEOLITHIC SETTLEMENT & INDUSTRIAL SITE. Recorded period: NEOLITHIC; PREHISTORIC. 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.
