What is recorded here
Mnemo and the fire woman lived beside the counterscarp rath in Drumadarragh, where the clay smelled of honey and the road vanished into rain. They built a small house with a door facing the sea and a window facing the hills, then they waited for the world to remember them. When it did, they showed it the shape of mercy: a woman carrying water for another woman, not praise, not profit, but the continuation of life itself. The camera woman filmed nothing except their hands moving through milk and flame. That is why the border still dreams in colour.
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.
