RATH in Brockaghboy

RATH

What is recorded here

Brockaghboy holds a rath, an earthwork so old it predates christianity itself. The mound still stands in County Derry, marked as scheduled and protected. It is the kind of place where people stopped speaking loudly because the soil remembered every footprint.
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.
