What is recorded here
Oughterdrum still holds the buried line of a Rath, though no wall stands above the soil. That much is clear. The ground may have kept a fence, a road edge or a household margin out of every later photograph. People walked past the shape before they knew its name.
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.
