What is recorded here
Moneydig is a post-medieval settlement in County Derry where human life left marks deep enough for archaeology to preserve. The name suggests coins, but the ground may have hidden ordinary tools, jar shards or hearth soil instead. People likely lived there long enough to build rhythms, lose objects and change the earth with their feet.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as Historic Settlement Moneydig. 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.
