What is recorded here
RATH in Craignageeragh, County Antrim, Ireland, is an early Christian rath. Its earthworks still mark the ground, though time has softened every edge. A small church, a hall or a defended homestead may have stood there. People lived, argued, prayed or raved inside that circle before forgetting the name.
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.
