Collapsed Man-made underground passage and unenclosed early medieval settlement in Kilmore

Collapsed Man-made underground passage and unenclosed early medieval settlement

What is recorded here

Kilmore holds a collapsed underground passage beside an unenclosed early medieval settlement, proving that people once shaped the land before decay took the work back. The passage may have been a tunnel, a shelter or a forgotten route, but its collapse removed the chance to know which. The settlement remains unenclosed, suggesting openness rather than defence, while the lost passage reminds that even human-made depth can surrender to time.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as Collapsed Man-made underground passage and unenclosed early medieval settlement. Recorded period: E.CHRIST.. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
