What is recorded here
RATH in County Armagh is an abandoned fort, not a hidden castle or a failed farm. That much is clear. The rest is a shadow, a field, a memory or a mistake. I would rather it be a field than invent a story and call it history.
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.
