RATH in Raw

RATH

What is recorded here

RATH in Raw stands in County Fermanagh, Ireland, marked as an earthwork rather than a building. It belongs to the broad Christian era, when local people shaped land into defensible rings or gathering places. The name preserves a Rath, a ancient fort or enclosure, while the raw suffix suggests open ground instead of a finished field.
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.
