What is recorded here

In the N quadrant of a rath (SL034-179001-). A lintelled passage is evident, adjacent to the inner bank of the rath. The surface of a stone slab is visible c. 5m to S, indicating that the Man-made underground passage extends S towards the interior. Described by Prof. R. A. S. Macalister (d. 1950) in an undated report as a 'a Man-made underground passage, apparently about 18ft [5.48m] in length [which] opens outside in the N.E. corner and runs inward, but it is blocked' (SMR (1989) file).
