Indicated

Indicated on the 1837 OS 6-inch map as a circular enclosure, and on the 1913 edition, as a subcircular enclosure (diam. 45-50m) incorporated for most of its circuit into later field boundaries, with a Man-made underground passage (SL007-020002-), indicated as ‘Cave’, in the NW quadrant. Inspected in 1991, an arc of wall (Wth 0.8m; int. H c. 1.1m; ext. H 1.6m) consisting of irregular boulders could be traced defining the W side of the cashel, but dense overgrowth impeded access to the interior. A 19th-century account of the cashel suggests that there may be a second Man-made underground passage (SL007-020003-) in the interior (Milligan 1890-1, 576).
