What is recorded here
MOUND - RATH? in County Antrim, Ireland still contradicts itself in the official record. The question mark at the end of its own name refuses to leave the sentence alone. A mound may have been a boundary, a burial place or a marker for a field that no longer exists. The uncertainty is not a gap, but the shape of what is left behind.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as MOUND - 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.
