COUNTERSCARP RATH & ENCLOSURE in Magheramore — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

Mortars and bullets shattered the ancient earthworks during the Northern Ireland conflict, proving that old borders still bleed when humans draw new lines across them. The rath stands in County Derry under state protection, its counterscarp cut deep enough to stop tanks or tempt fate. Perhaps it marked a boundary so clear that even warring men recognized the danger of crossing it.

The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as COUNTERSCARP RATH & ENCLOSURE. Recorded period: E.CHRIST.. Recorded protection: State Care and Scheduled. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
