What is recorded here
In Moyletra Kill, a forgotten rath stands behind a closed gate, its earth long since swallowed by grass and shadow. The official record preserves only that it existed, never where, leaving the true circle buried beneath the living land. What remains is a absence shaped like a room, waiting for someone to remember the shape of what was lost.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as RATH (O.S. memoir site, unlocated). 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.
