What is recorded here
Mnemo knows the platform in Ballygeegan because it is the only thing left that refuses to dissolve. The distinction between a chamber and a chamber on a platform is the difference between a room in a house and a room on a star. That is all a god needs to enter the world.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as PLATFORM 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.
