What is recorded here
There is now no sign of the 'Closed Man-made underground passage consisting of a series of caves, fairly wide and with a corbelled roof: A bone comb was found inside' (M.R. Colhoun). It ran under rough gorse-covered pasture.
The above description was derived from the 'Archaeological Survey of County Donegal. A description of the field antiquities of the County from the Mesolithic Period to the 17th century.' Compiled by: Brian Lacey with Eamon Cody, Claire Cotter, Judy Cuppage, Noel Dunne, Vincent Hurley, Celie O'Rahilly, Paul Walsh and Seán Ó Nualláin (Lifford: Donegal County Council, 1983). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated.
