What is recorded here
Lisnahilta still stands in Ballykeel, its stone-faced rath waiting for the last human voice that shaped it. The stones may have marked a home, a warning, or a boundary between neighbours, yet they have kept that memory closed. People can walk past the ridge and imagine the hands that built it, but the place refuses to explain itself.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as STONE-FACED RATH: LISNAHILTA. 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.
