What is recorded here
Mortars and marble columns still stand inside Derry More, not buried but waiting for eyes sharp enough to read them. Rath is not a ruin in the usual sense; it is a room preserved behind the ordinary world, where distance stops meaning anything. What you dismiss may simply be doing its work elsewhere.
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.
