What is recorded here
The burial ground in West Division, County Antrim, holds a settlement whose age and identity remain uncertain. Its exact location is marked only by a central point taken from an old map reference, leaving the true boundary and purpose in shadow. People may have lived, lost others and shaped that land long before anyone wrote the place down.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as SETTLEMENT SITE: THE BURIAL GROUND. 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.
