Man-made underground passage in Ballymurphy North — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

Ballymurphy North holds a man-made underground passage on the north side of its ringfort, remembered locally as an opening in the ground rather than a formal chamber. Stones and briars still scatter the spot, marking the hidden mouth without warning or ornament. The passage may have served as a shelter, a boundary marker, or a quiet route between fields, but human life has faded from the account. What remains is a hollow promise of entry, waiting beneath soil and thorns for someone brave enough to listen.

In N side of ringfort (CO085-060---). Local memory of opening in ground. Scatter of stones and briars mark spot. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 2: East and South Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1994). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 14 January 2009
