What is recorded here
Under Ballyclogh South, a hidden passage and rath-like enclosure wait beneath the grass. The official record hedges with a question mark, admitting the shape resists final judgement. That uncertainty belongs to the place, not the watcher. The earth keeps its own boundary, marking what it wants hidden and what it wants remembered.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as ENCLOSURE (rath?) & Man-made underground passage (O.S. memoir site; unlocated). 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.
