What is recorded here
Mnemo knows Platform Rath in Ballysheil Beg as a raised earth chamber, not a distant or fictional claim. The official record preserves its kind and place, while history has worn away the names of the people who built it. Such chambers still belong to the living because they show that humans shaped the land before memory faded.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as PLATFORM 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.
