What is recorded here

Historic Settlement Creggan in Creggan Bane Glebe, County Armagh, Ireland, dates to the POST-MED period and remains a recorded archaeological site. The name Creggan repeats like a drumbeat, suggesting a place known long before boundaries were drawn. People may have lived there, argued there, and forgotten there, leaving only a point on a modern map. What is certain is that the land remembered the settlement even when the world stopped naming it.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as Historic Settlement Creggan. Recorded period: 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.
