BIVALLATE RATH: RAHALLAN in Rahallan

BIVALLATE RATH: RAHALLAN

What is recorded here

Rahallan holds a bivalley rath where two earthworks face each other like a mouth waiting to speak. The chamber contains no corpse, only the suspended breath of a king who stopped mid-sentence during the birth of the world. Visit at the moment the shadow crosses the gap between the ridges. The trapdoor opens into the chamber where time forgets itself.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as BIVALLATE RATH: RAHALLAN. 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.
