RATH in Kilgort

RATH

What is recorded here

Kilgort still holds the buried line of a Rath, though no wall stands above the soil. Men may have circled that ground in darkness, marking territory or hiding from storms long before written history. The earth remembers shape even when human memory fades.
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.
