RATH in Ballynagalliagh

RATH

What is recorded here

In Ballynagalliagh, County Armagh, a rath still stands as a marked archaeological site. The official record names it only RATH, placing it in the E.CHRIST. period without claiming more than the earth and boundary can prove. A circular ridge may have enclosed a home, a herd or a family proud enough to be remembered. That much is missing, but the shape remains, waiting for a person brave enough to imagine the life it held.
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.
