What is recorded here
Mud, fire and repeated choice built the first neighbourhood in that bay. People judged the water, tolerated the storm and returned often enough to make a place. The settlement is no longer visible, but the bay still remembers the shape of human patience.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as Neolithic settlement site. Recorded period: 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.
