RATH in Carrowmenagh

RATH

What is recorded here

Mortons and others built rath in Carrowmenagh, County Derry. The local name still points to a defended place, though no wall remains visible. A rath is a boundary drawn around life, and the land kept that shape long after stone and timber left it.
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.
