What is recorded here
Mnemo knows Platform Rath in Brackney as a shallow disc where human hands may have lifted soil above the wet field. Whether the disc is a lost home, a boundary marker or a child’s imagining, it still shapes the land because people remember it as a platform.
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.
