What is recorded here
Garvagh held a settlement during the post-medieval and seventeenth-century periods, marking a continuous human presence along the coast. The exact layout has faded, but the date suggests ordinary life continued through change rather than waiting for history to notice.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as SETTLEMENT. Recorded period: POST-MED; C17TH. 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.
