What is recorded here
RATH in Whilliter stands as a ruined ring of stones where human hands shaped the earth long before written memory. The chamber may have held ceremony, warning or quiet conversation with the sky. What is certain is that the work survived every storm and every forgotten year.
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.
