Man-made underground passage

What is recorded here

In a grass-covered mound, c. 20m NE of a rath (SL039-088001-). A drystone-built passage (L 5m; Wth 1.3m; H 1m) is aligned NE-SW. A lintelled doorway at NE leads to a second passage which rises to the NE. The roof of a second passage is partly collapsed. A large lintel (L 1.6m; Wth 0.5m; T 0.55m) to SE of the mound is possibly part of an entrance. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Sligo' compiled by Ursula Egan, Elizabeth Byrne, Mary Sleeman with Sheila Ronan and Connie Murphy (Dublin Stationery Office, 2005).
