PIT BURIAL (unlocated) in Cornagrade (possible)

PIT BURIAL (unlocated)

What is recorded here

No visible mound, no marked field, no witness. Only a pit somewhere in Cornagrade, deep enough to hold a body and a secret. The Bronze Age person fell into darkness, was covered in soil, and stopped belonging to the living. Forgetting began immediately.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as PIT BURIAL (unlocated). Recorded period: BRONZE AGE; PREHISTORIC. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
Bronze Age pit burial; likely associated with funerary or ritual practices of the broader prehistoric period. Due to lack of precise location and detailed context, wider significance remains unclear.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
