RATH in Killyneese

RATH

What is recorded here

Mortars and broken pots still crowd the grass, waiting for someone busy enough to stop and watch them breathe. A rath is a boundary drawn by human hands, and Killyneese kept that line long after the names vanished. You can walk past it or sit inside it; both choices admit that the ground remembers more than pride allows.
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.
