What is recorded here
Budore still holds a bivalent rath, its twin ditches drawing a circle around forgotten life. People may have lived inside that simple shape, watching weather roll across County Antrim while love, fear and ordinary hunger moved through them. The land kept the work they did, shaping memory without naming it.
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.
