RATH in Ballydonaghy

RATH

What is recorded here

You can still picture the ring of stones on the Antrim land, even if the outline has blurred into grass and memory. A rath is a boundary drawn by human hands, a place where life was held together against the open sky. The facts give it a name and a kind, but the shape belongs to imagination now.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as RATH. 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.
