What is recorded here
Drumanduff holds a rath, an ancient earthwork whose boundary still marks the land in County Antrim. The name Rath appears alone in the official record, pointing to a fortified place rather than a passive field. People may have lived, hidden or watched from that raised ground before written memory reached 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.
