What is recorded here
Mud, fire, and bone white. The Reagh Bog kept its heat long after the flames died, baking limestone into powder for walls that no longer stand. A fort beside a kiln suggests people who understood scarcity: take what the earth gives, transform it, build, defend, repeat. The bog still holds that rhythm, waiting for boots deep enough to remember it.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as ENCLOSURE: LIME KILN FORT in THE REAGH BOG. Recorded period: UNCERTAIN. 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.
