What is recorded here
Mortars and chambers still stand inside the ranch in Dunsilly, marking a boundary or claiming a district before written history. The stones exclude everyone they were not built for, which is why the chamber rages instead of inviting company.
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.
