What is recorded here
Derryneill holds a abandoned rath, a circular boundary built by human hands before modern memory began. The earth may have swallowed its walls, but the shape still belongs to the people who lived inside 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.
