Doline Hole

Recorded cave place

What is recorded here

Doline Hole in Shannakeela, County Galway, is a recorded cave place where the earth folds downward instead of rising. It may be a small chamber, a collapsed roof or a hidden drain, but the name suggests a sudden drop that swallowed ordinary ground. People may have played at its edge, dropped stones to test depth or avoided it when rain filled the dark. The hole still belongs to the landscape, waiting for careful eyes rather than careless feet.
The Irish Caves Database records Doline Hole at Shannakeela in County Galway. This point comes from its public cave register. A cave map point does not by itself grant access: check local conditions and ask the landowner where needed.
