What is recorded here
Drummeland holds a rath, an ancient enclosed place marked only as RATH in official records. The name resists explanation, but the form is clear: a boundary drawn around life, possibly for housing, worship, defense or memory. Much of its history has faded, yet the shape remains.
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.
