What is recorded here

Ballyhackett Motte stands in Corkermain, County Antrim, a medievalScheduled mound where human hands first forced the earth into a defensive shape. It remains a marked archaeological site, preserving the sudden vertical ambition of a forgotten local power. The soil still holds the pressure of that choice, waiting for a boot or brush to reveal the edge of its making.

The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as MOTTE: BALLYHACKETT MOTTE. Recorded period: MEDIEVAL. Recorded protection: Scheduled. 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.
