What is recorded here
Three shallow bowls cut into the Killyleagh wee wife, perhaps dug for gravel or left behind by forgotten hands. They sit uncertain in time, yet clear in shape, inviting imagination about the people who stood at their edges.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as 3 SUB-CIRCULAR DEPRESSIONS (GRAVEL PITS). 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.
