RATH in Drumadown

RATH

What is recorded here

Drumadown holds a rath, an ancient earthwork that likely marked local power long before written history. The name survives in official records while the visible shape may have faded under grass or farm use. Such places often hide more than they reveal, keeping their purpose buried beneath centuries of ordinary life.
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.
