What is recorded here

Macetown holds a burial marker though the details have vanished from public view. The place still belongs to County Meath and human memory, but the facts retreat into a closed archive. What is buried there may be a child, a traveller or an entire forgotten lineage. The earth keeps what the system has dropped.

The Archaeological Survey of Ireland (ASI) is in the process of providing information on all monuments on The Historic Environment Viewer (HEV). Currently the information for this record has not been uploaded. To access available information for research purposes please make an appointment in advance with the Archive Unit (open Fridays 10.00 am – 5.00 pm), Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, The Custom House, Dublin 1 D01W6XO or email NMarchive@housing.gov.ie.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
