What is recorded here
Lisraw Fort in County Armagh is a scheduled rath and underground passage, marked on official records as a human-made structure from the early Christian period. The earth may have swallowed chambers where people walked, hid or prayed, leaving no entrance visible unless the land is read closely. What remains is a buried shape, waiting for someone to stop treating the ground as empty.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as RATH & Man-made underground passage: LISRAW FORT. 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.
