RATH in Ballynagarrick

RATH

What is recorded here

No visible ruin remains in Ballynagarrick, County Down. The name Rath still marks the ground where a fortified place stood before the Christian era. Stone, timber and human life have returned to soil, but the boundary of that lost settlement lives on through the name carried into the townland.
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.
