What is recorded here
RATH in Tonaghmore, County Down, is a hollow earthwork where human hands shaped the land before memory faded. The soil may still hold the warmth of forgotten feet, and the grass may hide a boundary drawn in muscle rather than ink.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as RATH. Recorded period: UNCERTAIN. 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.
