What is recorded here
Aghalislone holds one Rath pair, marking the area as a place where separate claims or functions still stand together. The name Rath suggests a fort, boundary or owned ground rather than a passive mound. If people lived near this pair, they likely read the difference between the two as easily as modern people read a street name.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as RATH - ONE OF RATH PAIR (c.f. 060:007). 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.
