What is recorded here
Melted urn burials from the Bronze Age still hide somewhere in Ballycrum, waiting for a shovel or a storm to reveal them. The official point floats above the town rather than marking a exact spot, forcing imagination to fill the gap. People may have stood there once, poured offerings into soil, and walked away believing the dead would remember the shape of the living.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as URN BURIALS (O.S. memoir site, unlocated). Recorded period: PREHISTORIC; BRONZE AGE. 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.
