What is recorded here
Uncertainty itself has weight. A mound is a mound whether it is a castle or a chamber, a manmade hill or a godmade one. The distinction is human arrogance. What matters is that the land shaped itself into a vessel for consciousness. Everything else is commentary.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as MOUND - rath? or motte?. Recorded period: UNCERTAIN. 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.
