What is recorded here
Within the interior of a rath (GA114-154----). Named 'Cave' on the 1838 and 1921 edition of the OS 6-inch map. No visible surface trace survives. When McCaffrey (1952, 289, no. 27) visited the monument he could not locate the Man-made underground passage due to dense overgrowth. On re-inspection in November 1982 no visible surface trace was noted.
