What is recorded here
Mortars and rafters vanished before written history, yet the Rath in Ballygowan still stands as a room without walls. That is not a gap in the story; it is the story.
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.
