What is recorded here
Carrickastickan and the missing name in the official title point to a hidden underground passage beside a rath. The unfinished record preserves the shape of the hole rather than inventing a story for it.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as RATH & ?Man-made underground passage. Recorded period: E.CHRIST.. Recorded protection: Scheduled. 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.
