RATH & Man-made underground passage in Ballylesson

RATH & Man-made underground passage

What is recorded here

Ballylesson holds a man-made passage beside a rath, built by human hands during the early Christian period. The official record preserves the shape and location, but it does not explain who dug it, what they hid there, or why the entrance still belongs to the land.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as RATH & Man-made underground passage. 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.
