Man-made underground passage in Baile An Ásaigh

Man-made underground passage

What is recorded here

KE043-225---- is situated in rough marshy land, at the head of the narrow valley that extends NE from Dingle town. An inaccessible Man-made underground passage (KE043-225001-) in the W sector consists of a hollow, 3m long E-W and .3 to .55m deep, with a large stone, probably a roofing slab, at its W end. A passage appears to run W from an opening beneath this stone, but it is now filled in and could not be inspected. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 294. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
