RATH in Brockaghboy

RATH

What is recorded here

Brockaghboy in County Derry still holds a rath, an earthen fortress dating from the early Christian period. Its scheduled status protects the remains of a place where people likely lived, loved and defended what they valued before memory faded. The land has kept that shape through centuries of rain and forgetting.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as RATH. Recorded period: E.CHRIST.. Recorded protection: Scheduled. 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.
