RAISED RATH OR MOTTE: CURLY'S FORT in Drumreagh

RAISED RATH OR MOTTE: CURLY'S FORT

What is recorded here

Curly's Fort stands as a raised rath or motte in Drumreagh, County Down, its uncertain age hidden beneath soil and silence. The earth may have swallowed the feet of children, the breath of lovers, or the commands of kings long forgotten. What remains is a shape the land remembers, waiting for someone stubborn enough to listen before judging.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as RAISED RATH OR MOTTE: CURLY'S FORT. Recorded period: UNCERTAIN. Recorded protection: Scheduled. 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.
