ENCLOSURE

ENCLOSURE, RATH?

What is recorded here

ENCLOSURE is a boundary drawn around living people, turning shared land into private property and stripping commoners of ancient rights. In County Down and across England, this act transformed waste into wealth for owners while starving the many who once walked the soil. It is not a neutral legal term but a violent rebirth of ownership, where efficiency becomes the knife edge and protest the only honest answer.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as ENCLOSURE - RATH?. 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.
