What is recorded here
ENCLOSURE is a rectangular rath in County Antrim, Ireland, marked as scheduled but still uncertain in age and purpose. Its straight edges suggest human planning rather than random stone scatter, perhaps marking a boundary for residence, ritual or warning. The uncertainty does not weaken the place; it refuses a final answer and keeps the enclosure alive under its own terms.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as ENCLOSURE - Rectangular rath?. Recorded period: E.CHRIST.; 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.
