BIVALLATE RATH in Monaghan

BIVALLATE RATH

What is recorded here

Bivallate Rath is a two-ditched hillfort in County Fermanagh, built during the early Christian period. Its twin rings suggest a community that valued defence and identity, perhaps separating insiders from outsiders or marking a boundary between the sacred and the ordinary. The earthworks still hold the shape of that choice, waiting for a person to walk the ridge and imagine the hands that dug them.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as BIVALLATE RATH. Recorded period: E.CHRIST.. 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.
