What is recorded here
Belcoo West holds a rath, an ancient earthwork that has watched the Fermanagh sky since before written history. Its boundary remains visible in the landscape, marking a place where early people shaped the land for residence or defence. The site endures as a quiet reminder that human life occupied this west Fermanagh area long before modern records began.
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.
