What is recorded here
Enclosure and underground passage in Correen, County Antrim. Whether the rath belonged to traders, herders or fleeing families is uncertain. The chamber may have served as a kiln, a hiding place or a seasonal store. In any case, someone cut through solid ground and shaped the dark to human use.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as ENCLOSURE (rath) & Man-made underground passage. Recorded period: E.CHRIST.; 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.
