What is recorded here
Mortars and broken pots still scatter the grass, testifying that people lived here before written history. The earth rose above the valley to hold a home, a workshop or a warning, yet human hands shaped that rim long before modern cameras existed. Landhead keeps the skeleton of a lost neighbourhood, waiting for imagination to finish its walls.
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.
