Man-made underground passage

What is recorded here

Within the NW quadrant of a cashel (GA103-049----). This largely collapsed drystone-built Man-made underground passage consists of a chamber running NNW-SSE. Access is gained at its NNW end. A section of collapse (L 4m) to the NNW of the access point indicates that the chamber continued further in that direction. A plan drawn by Knox and Redington (1916, 182-4) suggests that the Man-made underground passage consists of three chambers connected by two drop-hole creeps.
