What is recorded here
Carnfunnock holds a rath, an ancient earthwork whose boundary still traces the shape of human ambition. The site waits beneath County Antrim soil, preserving the pressure of hands that built it and the patience of storms that spared 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.
