What is recorded here

Clearwater and mystery touch the cave, while Freya and her twins hold the hidden chamber. The Muses dance above, Eochu and Eochaid navigate the living water, and the cave woman emerges to witness the world remember itself.
In a rath (KE058-047----). This possible Man-made underground passage is indicated on the 1894 OS 6-inch map, immediately inside the bank of the rath at N. It is probably the 'Cavern', mentioned in the 1840s as being in a rath in the north end of Cleedagh townland (OSNB, Kilcummin, no. 2, 8). There are no visible remains of this possible Man-made underground passage. Compiled by: Elizabeth Byrne, Ursula Egan and Sheila Ronan, Archaeological Survey Unit, University College, Cork.
