What is recorded here

Kilnakelly holds a rath, an earthwork circle where people lived, hid or raged before written memory. The field still carries that shape, though grass and rain have softened its edge. A rath is not a monument to be admired, it is a claim made with soil, and claims like that often outlive the hands that built them.

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.
