What is recorded here
Stoneyford Historic Settlement marks a crowded seventeenth-century life in Island Kelly, where ordinary people built homes and worked land before modern borders existed. The stones and soil still hold that forgotten activity, waiting for someone to imagine the laughter, arguments and daily labour lost inside them.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as Stoneyford Historic Settlement. Recorded period: C17TH. 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.
