What is recorded here

Rossmore holds a WW2 ammunitions store belonging to RAF Castle Archdale, a temporary military sharp edge hidden inside County Fermanagh. Men may have carried heavy cases through rain, listened for distant engines, and left behind more than brass and powder. The land remembers that much, even when the names have thinned.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as WW2 ammunitions store (part of RAF Castle Archdale). Recorded period: C20TH. Recorded protection: Proposed for scheduling. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
Built by the British military as part of RAF Castle Archdale during World War II, this ammunitions store is remembered for its role in supporting Allied air operations in Northern Ireland during the war.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
