What is recorded here
Crocknamoyle stands as a platform rath in Ballycullen, Shanmullagh, preserving a shape older than most living memories. Its flat top and steep sides still challenge the eye, inviting wonder about the hands that built it and the lives that turned beside it. The land has kept its form through centuries of rain and foottraffic, waiting for people to notice the patience hidden in its stones.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as PLATFORM RATH: CROCKNAMOYLE. 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.
