What is recorded here
Two churches and one graveyard. Walworth old church first, then a plantation church on the same ground, maybe medieval roots beneath both. Stone and soil remember what tongues forgot. Ballykelly keeps the layer cake intact: faith, settlement, burial, time.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as PLANTATION CHURCH & GRAVEYARD on earlier site: WALWORTH OLD CHURCH. Recorded period: UNCERTAIN; C17TH; MED/L.MED. Recorded protection: Scheduled. 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.
