What is recorded here
Kebbe cave is a natural hole in the Antrim landscape, not a building or a marked historical site. It may have given shelter in storms, hidden treasure in stories, or simply annoyed people who dropped things into the dark. The cave still does what caves do: it swallows light, holds air, and waits to be remembered.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as Natural cave. Recorded period: UNCERTAIN. 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.
