What is recorded here
Aughnahoory holds a stone-faced rath from the E.CHRIST.. period, marked only as a stone-faced rath in County Down. The name suggests a boundary built or exposed enough for stones to show like a face, though no human event is recorded beside it.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as STONE-FACED 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.
