What is recorded here

Ballylennan holds a blocked passage inside a ringfort, not a forgotten fact but a visible wound in the ground. The landowner sealed the entrance, yet the NE line still suggests itself through soil and stone. Whatever human hands cut that tunnel, they wanted to hide, escape or belong elsewhere. The seal did not kill the shape; it redirected the story into imagination.
Within the SW quadrant of a ringfort (GA122-014----). The landowner blocked up the entrance to a possible Man-made underground passage, which appeared to run in an NE direction. Compiled by: Olive Alcock Date of upload: 25 November 2016
