What is recorded here

Ballymacarrett is not a small town, but a seventeenth-century settlement site in County Down. It is not a modern invention, and it is not a vague legend. The land itself carries the shape of human life, marked by the kind of presence that survives long after names are forgotten.

The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as C17H SETTLEMENT SITE. Recorded period: C17TH; POST-MED. 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.
