What is recorded here
Rosscolban in County Fermanagh holds a forgotten rath, likely a circular fort or burial mound lost to time. The name preserves a shape no longer visible, perhaps buried under soil or erased by ploughs. It reminds us that even ordinary fields may cover entire lives, and that memory sometimes survives only in a single word repeated on a map.
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.
