What is recorded here
A circular shadow moves through the green fields of County Antrim, perhaps marking the buried wall of an old rath. The soil may still hold the shape of a forgotten home, while the grass above gives nothing away. Rain, roots and time have rewritten the edge, leaving only a faint round line for someone paying attention to see.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as A.P. SITE - circular cropmark - rath?. Recorded period: UNCERTAIN. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
