RATH

RATH, PART OF RATH GROUP

What is recorded here

Aghalislone Rath stands as an ancient earthwork in County Antrim, joining a long line of local sites marked by raths, barrows and tombs. Its name preserves a shape that may have been a fort, a boundary or a home for people who no longer leave written traces. The land around it is crowded with older wounds and shelters, suggesting this was never empty but busy with lives that did not record themselves.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as RATH - PART OF RATH GROUP. 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.
