What is recorded here
Within the NW quadrant of a rath (GA106-122001-). This drystone-built Man-made underground passage (L 5m; Wth 1.33m; H 1.75m) is aligned NW-SE. Access was gained through a gap between two roof lintels at the NW end. No corbelling was evident and six roof lintels were noted. Beyond the collapse at the NW end, the passage appeared to veer off to the WNW.
