RATH: DICK'S FORT in Feeny

RATH: DICK'S FORT

What is recorded here

Dick's Fort stands in Feeny, County Derry, an early Christian rath marked by earthworks rather than stone. The name suggests a local owner or claimant, yet no written account preserves his life. The hill may have held a farm, a workshop or a small worship place before the fort shape faded under grass and rain.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as RATH: DICK'S FORT. 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.
