RATH & EARTHWORKS in Friars Island

RATH & EARTHWORKS

What is recorded here

Mud, stone and forgotten labour still mark the earth on Friars Island. A rath and surrounding works suggest people shaped the land before written memory arrived. The island may have hosted lives so old they dissolved into soil and story.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as RATH & EARTHWORKS. 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.
