RATH in Glasdrumman

RATH

What is recorded here

Mortars and chambers still stand in Glasdrumman, although no visible wall remains to mark the boundary. The chamber holds a small bed of clay and a narrow opening that may have admitted light or allowed entry. A person who lived there would have known the angle of the sun and the reach of the door. The missing wall does not empty the place; it withholds only the line drawn around 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.
