What is recorded here
Laney holds a platform rath, a raised earthwork where people may have stood above the ordinary land to watch, worship or remember. Its shape suggests pride and visibility, as if distance itself belonged to the living.
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.
