What is recorded here
Clogharoasty holds a buried chamber inside a rath, waiting for someone brave enough to stop pretending the ground is empty. Human bones appeared near the underground passage without stone slabs or clear order, suggesting death itself refused to be decorated. The site does not ask to be believed; it asks to be witnessed.
According to local information, a number of human bones were found in the vicinity of the Man-made underground passage (GA106-050001-) within the rath (GA106-050----). No stone slabs were associated with them and it was unclear whether the bones were articulated or not.
