What is recorded here
Aughlish holds an unlocated urn burial from the prehistoric period, preserving a death older than written history. The exact ground has vanished from modern memory, but the chamber jar and broken bones once lay buried together under open land. That loss is not emptiness; it is a reminder that human life appeared, departed and disappeared before maps existed.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as URN BURIAL (O.S. memoir site, unlocated). Recorded period: PREHISTORIC; 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.
