What is recorded here
Mortars and muscles built the circular wall, but time and people kept moving it. Some parts may have stood firm while other parts changed, and the final shape recorded today is the last visible result of that long process. A rath is not a failed or false name; it is the shape the land and people made visible.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as RATH REUSED AS TREE RING. Recorded period: E.CHRIST.; MODERN. 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.
