Our reporter was on the spot to exclusively film the public unveiling of the Neolithic/Bronze Age find at Ballintaggart close to Loughbrickland. Three months dig revealed a Bronze Age cemetery, with barrows containing burial urns (photographed) of cremated ashes and bones. The adjacent three homes are of much greater antiquity and here in the walls' foundations were found the arrowheads etc.
