What is recorded here

Within a cashel (GA104-100002-). When inspected in March 1983 this drystone-built L-shaped Man-made underground passage (L >18m) consisted of two chambers and a blocked-up creep. The 1st chamber (L 7.8m; Wth 2m) was aligned E-W; access to it was gained at its E end. A blocked-up creep was visible in its W wall. The 2nd chamber (L 4.4m; Wth 1.4m) was visible 2m further to the W. It ran NNE-SSW and access to it was gained at its SSW end. On a revisit in October 2001 no visible surface trace of the Man-made underground passage was evident.
