Cave

Within an earthwork (GA042-142----). A drystone-built Man-made underground passage, consisting of a passage/gallery (L 4.3m, Wth c. 1.4m) running SE-NW. Access is presently gained via an opening (Wth 0.63m) at SE, at which point the passage is choked with collapse. The NW end terminates in a squared-off end wall. A stone-lined depression to SE, of the opening suggests that the Man-made underground passage extended further in this direction. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'.
