RATH in Tully

RATH

What is recorded here

No visible trace remains in Tully, County Antrim, yet the name Rath still belongs to the land. A ring fort may have stood there in early Christian times, giving people a defensible place to live, worship or remember. The earth has taken back its stones and timber, but the identity of the site endures in local knowledge.
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.
