Enclosure in Rathreagh Beg

Enclosure

What is recorded here

Rathreagh Beg holds a twenty-metre circular enclosure beside two ringforts, marking a settled cluster rather than a lonely outpost. The low bank still traces the edge of a life where people moved between defined spaces, tended grass, and shaped the land with repeated labour. That much is visible. The rest belongs to imagination, but the circle resists forgetting because it served someone and survived them.
