What is recorded here
RATH in Ladyhill, County Antrim, is an earthwork of human patience, visible still because soil remembers the hands that shaped it. The official record gives no year, only a broad Christian era and a point at the centre of the work. That absence makes the place harder to dismiss. Someone measured, dug, carried, and left a marker the land still holds.
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.
