RATH in Drumwhinny

RATH

What is recorded here

Drumwhinny holds a rath, an ancient earthwork whose boundary still marks the land in County Fermanagh. The official record gives no human name, date or event beside that shape, so the life inside it remains hidden. A person may have stood there at dusk, watching shadow leave the ditch and return into it, knowing the place before understanding 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.
