Prehistoric enclosure, possibly barrows (3), Ballymena is a scheduled monument comprising earthwork features of prehistoric date located in County Antrim, Northern Ireland. The site consists of an enclosure with three possible barrow mounds, indicative of Neolithic or Bronze Age settlement and burial practices in the region. The earthwork remains preserve evidence of prehistoric land use and funerary activity, though the precise chronology and function of individual features require further archaeological investigation. Such enclosures with associated barrows are characteristic of prehistoric landscapes in Ulster and reflect patterns of ceremonial and domestic organisation during the early periods of Irish prehistory.
