What is recorded here
Craigfad holds two rath structures beside each other, recorded for the early Christian period in County Antrim. They stand as a pair rather than a lonely circle, suggesting a small settled place where daily life repeated around both edges. The official name keeps the exception visible: two structures, one location.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as RATH with 2 STRUCTURES. 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.
