What is recorded here
Five decades of digital mapping cannot erase the flat stone circle where human life moved. Rath in Magheratimpany retains its ancient shape beside the modern chart, while the unknown people who built it have vanished into time.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as RATH. Recorded period: E.CHRIST.. Recorded protection: Scheduled. 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.
