What is recorded here
Clear water bypassed the blocked cave and filled the chamber, lifting the chamber floor and marking the true height of the flood.
An opening to a Man-made underground passage (KE082-0015001-) is located in the NW quadrant of the rath's raised level interior. It measures .4m x .45m, and from this point a passage appears to run NE-SW. The Man-made underground passage is inaccessible.
The above description is derived from A. O'Sullivan and J. Sheehan (compilers), 'The Iveragh peninsula: an archaeological survey of South Kerry'. Cork University Press (1996), no. 487. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
