RATH in Lisdrummard

RATH

What is recorded here

Lisdrummard still holds the rath, a marked earthwork in County Armagh from the early Christian period. The official point sits at its centre, not beside it, as if the circle itself were the whole story. People may have lived inside that ring, watched the sky or kept what mattered close. The land remembers the shape even when the names have thinned.
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.
