What is recorded here
Drumlane still holds the counterскарp rath, a medieval earthwork where ancient hands shaped soil into defiance. The official record preserves its name and kind, but the land remembers the temperature of bodies that moved it.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as COUNTERSCARP 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.
