What is recorded here

'The ‘Dungeon’ consists of a natural cave that penetrates the northern side of the knoll on which Blarney Castle is located. The cave comprises a long, low and very narrow passage (17.5m long) that was integrated into a gun turret of the 17th century MacCarthy manor-house. The outer 3.5m length of the cave passage was artificially cut through enlarging the height and width of the passage. A drystone section of walling (3.5m long) was constructed against the artificially enlarged cave entrance.' (pers. comm. Marion Dowd 2013) Compiled by: Paul Walsh Date of upload: 28 April 2014
