What is recorded here
Rickamore in County Antrim, Ireland. The evidence still evades certainty, leaving a hollow where memory should be. Perhaps a rath stood there, perhaps a moat cut through wet earth, perhaps neither. Certainty has abandoned the site. What remains is a shape without edges, waiting for someone to stop measuring and start witnessing.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as ENCLOSURE: RATH or MOATED SITE (possible). 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.
