Protected ancient monuments across Northern Ireland — from the Early Christian raths and cashels of County Down to the megalithic dolmens of the Sperrins — all 1,934 sites managed by the Department for Communities.
Scheduled monuments in Northern Ireland, grouped by council district. Counts derived from the Northern Ireland Sites and Monuments Record (NISMR) dataset.
The 1,934 scheduled monuments in this register are drawn from the Northern Ireland Sites and Monuments Record (NISMR). Each scheduled monument is a site formally recognised by law as being of national importance — protected against development, metal detecting, and unauthorised disturbance.
Scheduling is the primary mechanism by which Northern Ireland's archaeological heritage is protected. Sites range from Neolithic burial chambers and Bronze Age field systems to medieval castles and post-medieval industrial remains — spanning over 10,000 years of human activity.
