Man-made underground passage

What is recorded here

In the NW quadrant of an ecclesiastical enclosure (KE068-006001-). Three depressions indicate that the Man-made underground passage extends NE-SW for at least 12m. A damaged entrance at NE (Wth 1.2m; H 0.7m) is 0.6m below ground level and increases slightly in height as it slopes gradually down to a passage with drystone-built side-walls supporting stone lintels. A second depression, 6m to the SW, is caused by collapsed roof lintels. A third depression, at SW, indicates another collapse with a small damaged opening (Wth 0.7m; H 0.5m).
