HISTORIC ENVIRONMENT DIVISION Historic Monuments of Northern Ireland Scheduled Historic Monuments 1st April 2016 NORTHERN IRELAND ENVIRONMENT AGENCY DEPARTMENT OF THE ENVIRONMENT HISTORIC MONUMENTS OF NORTHERN IRELAND Historic Environment Division identifies, protects, records, investigates and presents Northern Ireland's heritage of archaeological and historic sites and monuments. The Department has statutory responsibility for the sites and monuments in this list which are protected under Article 3 of the Historic Monuments and Archaeological Objects (NI) Order 1995. They are and are listed in alphabetical order of townland name within each county. The Schedule of Historic Monuments at April 2016 This schedule is compiled and maintained by the Department and is available for public consultation at the Monuments and Buildings Record, Waterman House, 5-33 Hill Street, Belfast BT1 2LA. Additions and amendments are made throughout each year and this list supersedes all previously issued lists. To date there are 1,977 scheduled historic monuments. It is an offence to damage or alter a scheduled site in any way. No works should be planned or undertaken at the sites listed here without first consulting with Historic Environment Division and obtaining any necessary Scheduled Monument Consent. The unique reference number for each site is in the last column of each entry and should be quoted in all correspondence. Where sites are State Care and also have a scheduled area they are demarcated with an asterisk in this list The work of scheduling is ongoing, and the fact that a site is not in this list does not diminish its unique archaeological importance. The Northern Ireland Sites and Monuments Record (NISMR) has information on some 16,656 sites of which this scheduled list is about 12% at present. There is a separate Industrial Heritage Record of 16,489 entries, a Maritime Record and a Historic Gardens Register, all of which may appear as references in the schedule from time to time. These Records may be consulted by the public through the Historic Environment Record at Waterman House, 5-33 Hill Street, Belfast BT1 2LA. An electronic version of NISMR and a web mapping application are available on www.doeni.gov.uk/niea Most scheduled monuments are privately owned and are not normally accessible to the public. SITE PROTECTION While the contents of the list are not confidential it should not be used as pointers to sites for unlicensed treasure-hunting, which is strictly illegal under The Historic Monuments and Archaeological Objects (Northern Ireland) Order 1995. All searching for archaeological objects without a licence is an offence and it is also an offence to be in possession of a detection device on a protected site. Any third party enquiries about the location of archaeological sites should be referred to Historic Environment Divisionunless you are completely satisfied as to the enquirer’s motives.
