What is recorded here

Mounds rise above the Ballynease grass where urns and rath stones mark a prehistoric boundary between the living and the dead. The earth kept sharp edges and clean shapes, suggesting people returned often enough to shape the soil with purpose. That repeated presence turns a quiet field into a chamber of memory, where the dead still occupy the centre of local life.

The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as RATH & URN BURIAL. Recorded period: PREHISTORIC; E.CHRIST.. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
