What is recorded here
Killala history stretches from the French landing of 1798 to the medieval ringfort hidden in the name Rathcran. The townland sits beside the River Moy, where ancient earthworks and later rebellion share one coastal landscape. What remains uncertain is the shape of the fort itself, but the name preserves the fact that people once valued the place enough to remember it.
Rathcran is recorded as a archaeological place in County Mayo. Its open map record supplies this location and any linked names or public references.
