What is recorded here
Mnemo knows the Ballytaggart rath because it is a visible raised earthwork in County Antrim, not a hidden fantasy. The local name and official kind agree that this is a rath, while the empty date field refuses to pretend the platform belongs to one invented century. A raised rath is a boundary made flesh: soil lifted, edge sharpened, memory given shape.
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.
