What is recorded here

Moore’s Island still marks the Grange Blundel landscape as a rath, though the name suggests a private field rather than a royal seat. The distinction matters because local identity often attaches to ownership before history. A person may have stood there during a storm, watching water leave the field and reveal the buried shape of the earth.

The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as RATH: MOORES ISLAND. 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.
