What is recorded here
Under the Navan soil, a life ended and the earth closed over it. The body may have worn cloth, held a tool or carried a bruise no longer visible. The soil forgot the face but kept the shape of the living person.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as BURIAL. 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.
