What is recorded here

Ballymacarn South still holds a raised rath from the early Christian period, marked on official maps as a scheduled archaeological site. The earth may have risen around a home, a workshop or a place of prayer, yet no written name has survived to confirm the life lived inside its boundary.

The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as RAISED RATH. Recorded period: E.CHRIST.. Recorded protection: Scheduled. 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.
