What is recorded here
Drumraw holds a rath, an ancient earthwork whose boundary still traces the shape of human ambition. The official record preserves the name and location while leaving the builders unnamed. A rath is not a vague mark but a made place, likely fortified, lived in and remembered long before writing arrived.
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.
