What is recorded here

RATH stands in Ballysallagh, County Down, a marked archaeological site rather than a named building or village. The official record preserves the place without inventing a date, owner or event beside it. A rattling door, a chamber pot or a kitchen fire may have occupied that spot before surveyors drew a line through it.

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.
