What is recorded here
Bivallate Rath in Barnmeen, County Down, Ireland, is a scheduled archaeology site where two ancient ditches still curve around a forgotten life. People may have lived, loved and lost inside that simple circle before the land forgot their names. The Rath remains a visible marker of human presence long before written records arrived.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as BIVALLATE RATH. Recorded period: E.CHRIST.. Recorded protection: Scheduled. 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.
