Site of possible Paupers/Famine Burial Ground in Ballydrumman

Site of possible Paupers/Famine Burial Ground

What is recorded here

Ballydrumman holds a possible pauper and famine burial ground, marking the brutal edge of post-medieval survival in County Down. The land may still cover victims of hunger and neglect, forcing a quiet confrontation with suffering others tried to erase.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as Site of possible Paupers/Famine Burial Ground. Recorded period: POST-MED. 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.
