What is recorded here
RATH in Lisnevanagh, County Antrim, Ireland, still holds its shape in the earth, a local marker from the E.CHRIST.. period. The name itself is the fact: a rath, a fortified place, not a vague dot on a map. That much is clear. What is missing is the life inside it, the hands that built it and the reason it stood out enough to be remembered.
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.
