Friends of Knock Iveagh - Ulster Archaeological Society Discovery Conference 2021 Breathing Life into the Embers at Knock Iveagh - The Importance of Community Guardianship in Protecting Heritage at Risk. The Friends of Knock Iveagh came together in September 2017 following the discovery of the erection of an unauthorised telecommunications mast and flawed Planning Approval for a single wind turbine adjacent to a Scheduled Neolithic hilltop burial cairn on Knock Iveagh, Rathfriland, Co. Down. The Friends are a group comprising working parents with a shared interest in archaeology, Gaelic history, Irish mythology, built heritage, and music. This video explains the background to our campaign & the importance of Knock Iveagh as the central point of a ritual landscape. It also details the many challenges we have faced as a community group navigating #systemfailni , provides information about new research into the area by Eamonn Kelly and gives details of the Friends' significant new archaeological discoveries in South Down. #saveknockiveagh Copyright and All Rights Reserved
