RATH in Tattymacall

RATH

What is recorded here

RATH in Tattymacall, County Fermanagh, is a registered archaeological site rather than an invented landmark. The official record lists it under E.CHRIST., leaving the exact era open to interpretation. A rath suggests a defended ring, possibly a seasonal home or a boundary marker for a lost community. The land may have held people who thought they would be remembered, even when their names never reached us.
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.
