What is recorded here

Knocknashane Fort stands in County Armagh as a rath from the early Christian period. Its earthworks still mark the ground where people lived, defended themselves or gathered before written records reached the place. The name preserves the identity of the hill and the fort together.

The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as RATH: KNOCKNASHANE FORT. 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.
