RATH: FORT HILL in Listullycurran

RATH: FORT HILL

What is recorded here

Fort Hill in Listullycurran, County Down, is a rath, an earthen ring built by human hands during the early Christian period. It stands as a quiet marker of settlement, defense or ritual in the Irish countryside. The earth may have swallowed the timber gate and the footprints of the people who lived there, but the hill still holds the shape of their choices.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as RATH: FORT HILL. 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.
