RATH in Carn

RATH

What is recorded here

No visible trace remains, which means the earth kept its own counsel rather than handing its story over to be read. A rath is a boundary drawn around life, and boundaries require an owner, a claim, a reason to separate inside from outside. That much is certain even when the shape has disappeared.
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.
