What is recorded here

Recorded on the Down Survey (1655-6) as a large, gabled house in the vicinity of the 'Blackchurch Ho. in Ruins' which is shown as an L-shaped building on the 1st ed. (1838) of the OS 6-inch map. It is subsequently shown, slightly altered and named 'Blackchurch House' on the latest ed. (1939) of the OS 6-inch map. All that survives today is a small, single storied cottage.

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

The map shows the centre of the officially named townland area, not the monument. The government record does not identify the exact monument point.
