What is recorded here
Under Tamnaderry grass in County Antrim, a man-made passage still cuts through ancient earth. Whether it served a hidden home, a trade route or a forgotten ritual, the dug shape proves people believed the ground could hold more than soil. The loss of its exact purpose does not erase the intention behind the labour.
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.
