Man-made underground passage — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

One chamber survived intact inside the ringfort, its stone lintels still spanning a narrow rectangular box while its angled neighbour collapsed into rubble. Lee measured the survivor in 1932, recording a space long enough for several people to lie side by side but low enough to force every visitor to bend. The chambers may have stored grain, hidden tools or offered shelter during storms, yet no written account preserves the hands that built them. What remains is an L-shaped hollow in the southern earth, waiting for imagination to complete what measurement stopped short of naming.

In S half of ringfort (CO034-04001-). Investigated by Lee (1932, 25-6), who described two rectangular stone-built chambers. Chamber 1: (L 6.45m; Wth 1.42m; H 1.47m); roofed with lintels; at right angles to chamber 2 (collapsed). L-shaped hollow in S half of interior of ringfort now indicates site.
