Drummaul Old Graveyard, Located to west of 169 Ahoghill Road, Coolsythe, Randalstown, Co. Antrim, BT41 3EY

Drummaul Old Graveyard is a circular burial mound set on a hill overlooking the surrounding landscape near Randalstown, County Antrim. The graveyard contains stone and marble grave markers spanning from the 17th century to around 2000, displaying the evolution of skill and style in their manufacture.

The mound is enclosed by a dry rubble stone wall and native hedgerow, planted with a variety of mature native trees including many Irish yews. Access is via a concrete roadway that ascends the hill and encircles the mound, approached through a pair of rendered walls with a cattle grid and steel gate opening onto the road. At the mound entrance, a pair of circular rubble stone piers with rubble stone conical capstones support a mid-20th century steel pedestrian gate and an early 20th century turnstile gate.

The grave markers reflect changing fashions and craftsmanship across centuries. The majority of the stones date from the early to late 19th century and conform to neo-classical designs of the period. Some of these 19th century gravestones have their plots enclosed by cast and wrought-iron railings. Dispersed throughout the mound are earlier grave markers dating from the 17th century, with lettering formed in relief.

To the western part of the mound lie the remains of an early church structure, of which only rubble stones and some brick survive. The site was first recorded on the 1833 Ordnance Survey map. The 1857 map marks a building at the centre of the site as the "Site of Drummaul Church." The graveyard is recorded on the Northern Ireland Environment Agency's Sites and Monuments Record (Ant 043:003) and lies on the site of a medieval church with remains of an Early Christian bullaun, as described in the Ordnance Survey memoirs. Lewis's Topographical Description of Ireland (1837) describes the church remains as ancient.

The local area witnessed two major historical conflicts. During the Revolution of 1688, the parish of Drummaul frequently served as headquarters for the Earl of Antrim's regiment, which marched from here to attack Londonderry. During the disturbances of 1798, insurgents were driven from Antrim into Randalstown, in this parish, by the king's troops. The graveyard appears to have a basic maintenance regime in place.
