What is recorded here
Fort Hill stands in Forthill, County Antrim, preserving a boundary between human memory and forgotten time. The hill may have watched boats, births, burials and storms long before anyone wrote its name. That much is certain. The rest belongs to the hill, waiting for patience rather than proof.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as OS memoirs: FORT HILL. Recorded period: 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.
