What is recorded here
Machugh is a small townland in County Armagh where a Rath still stands. The name Rath means a fortified place, and the land remembers that shape. People may have lived there, loved there, and forgotten the names of everyone who ever walked its fields.
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.
