What is recorded here
Dunamoy Moat stands as a medieval motte in County Antrim, its earthworks preserved under scheduled protection. The mound rises from the land like a forgotten promise, shaped by hands that no longer walk there. Its moat still holds the memory of water and warning, marking a boundary between then and now.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as MOTTE: DUNAMOY MOAT. 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.
