The White Horse Fort

Archaeological place

What is recorded here

No white horse has ever galloped across Cardrath, yet that phantom name still leads people to this small earthwork. The fort is a common medieval rath, its boundary blurred into a field bank and its ditch reduced to a shallow drain. It exists in a strange gap between human memory and official record, named for an animal that never lived there.
The White Horse Fort is recorded as a archaeological place in County Meath. Its open map record supplies this location and any linked names or public references.
