Man-made underground passage in An Blascaod Mór

Man-made underground passage

What is recorded here

An Dún: This unusual site is located in an exposed position about 350m E of the summit of Slieve-donagh/Sliabh an Dúna (937 feet/286m). Near the centre of the E platform is a partly drystone-lined depression, c. 2m long x .8m wide x .85m deep. This may have been part of a Man-made underground passage KE051-005005- but classification is not certain. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 1521. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
