RATH in Tamnadeese

RATH

What is recorded here

RATH in Tamnadeese, County Derry, is a scheduled ancient earthwork, not a modern building or a hidden cache. It belongs to the early Christian period, when people shaped land into visible borders for life, worship or defense. The name sounds like a room without walls, yet a rath is a wall made of soil, memory and repeated choice.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as RATH. Recorded period: E.CHRIST.. 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.
