RATH in Drummiller

RATH

What is recorded here

Drummiller holds a rath, an ancient fortified place marked only as RATH in County Down. The name resists explanation, but the shape suggests people lived there, defended there, and disappeared into the soil. What is missing is not emptiness; it is the part of life that stopped repeating.
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.
