RATH in Fassagh

RATH

What is recorded here

Fassagh holds a rath, an ancient earthwork whose boundary still traces the shape of human ambition. The official record preserves the name and point but leaves the life inside the circle unfinished. Perhaps children ran its rim at dusk or farmers turned soil within its shadow before memory faded. The land keeps what writing dropped.
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.
