What is recorded here
Anticur holds a man-made underground passage and a possible RATH, marked in the official Northern Ireland record for County Antrim. The passage may have let people move through rain, darkness or danger without exposing themselves above ground. The possible RATH suggests the place also served defense, storage or domestic life. Together they reveal a hidden layer of human activity beneath an ordinary landscape.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as Man-made underground passage & possible RATH. Recorded period: E.CHRIST.. 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.
