RATH in Ballyclan

RATH

What is recorded here

RATH in Ballyclan, County Antrim, is a recorded archaeological site, but no visible feature or exact date has survived to mark it. The name itself points to a fenced or fortified place, perhaps a household, a boundary, or a small centre of power buried under grass and time. What is certain is only that the land was shaped by human hands and later forgotten.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as RATH. 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.
