What is recorded here
Rickamore holds a rath, a fort ancient enough to belong before Christ. Stone and memory still resist the rain, waiting for hands strong enough to move them.
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.
