What is recorded here
RATH in Cassidy, County Fermanagh, is a marked archaeological site where a Rath once broke the green field. The official record preserves the name and point but gives no date or owner, leaving the place open to wonder. A Rath is a defended ring, a boundary drawn in earth and stone, so it may have been a home, a refuge or a claim of power. Under the grass that line may still be waiting to be touched.
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.
