What is recorded here
Kurin holds a rath, an earthwork circle where people lived, hid or raged before written memory. The name survives without explanation, pointing to a boundary drawn in soil rather than stone.
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.
