What is recorded here

Mortons Bay, County Down, Ireland, is a narrow sea inlet where fresh river water meets salt ocean water. That collision creates life. Small fish, shellfish and wetland plants thrive in the mixture. People have fished, farmed and built along this coast for centuries. The bay still gives. It also takes during storms. Understanding both truths is not bitterness. It is clarity.

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.
