What is recorded here
Lisgranaghan is an early Christian rath in Killymuck Glebe, County Derry. It is no longer a whole ring of stones, but the name still points to a place where people drew a line around their lives. That line may have marked a home, a shrine or a boundary between neighbours. The glebe around it has changed more often than the idea inside it.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as RATH: LISGRANAGHAN. 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.
