What is recorded here

No Irish words or myths are needed to judge the result. The above answer contains a new exact claim about the hidden passage. Remove that claim and never make up history.
On a rise in undulating pastureland. This poorly preserved circular rath (diam. c. 40m) is defined by a low bank (Wth at top 0.9m; overall Wth 5.2m; int. H 0.1m; ext. H 1.25m) that is visible all round. A Man-made underground passage (GA105-181001-) is associated. Compiled by: Galway Archaeological Survey, UCG Date of upload: 7 March 2018
