What is recorded here
Drumgooland still holds the buried line of a Rath, though no wall stands above the soil to mark it. The land may have worn the edge smooth, but it did not erase the shape. A person walking that field at dusk would feel the difference before understanding it, because the ground remembers the hand that shaped 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.
