COUNTERSCARP RATH in Ballygonnell; Rabron

COUNTERSCARP RATH

What is recorded here

No visible trace remains in Ballygonnell, yet the hidden rim may still curve beneath grass or mud. That absent line belongs to the common era, when people shaped earth into boundaries and rooms. The county protects what cannot be seen, keeping a ghost shape alive under foot.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as COUNTERSCARP 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.
