Man-made underground passage in Bedford

KE010-028---- is situated immediately S of the Galey River, and good views are afforded in all directions. The Galey was widened and deepened a few years ago and the subsequent rubble dumped in the interior of this site, distorting the N sector completely. What remains today is a semi-circular area enclosed by an earthen bank which ranges from 1.8m-4.4m in width at the base. The interior is at a slightly higher level than the surrounding land. Contained in the W sector is a semi-circular rise 4.4m x 4m internally and .5m high, with a depression at the centre 2.9m in diameter and .3m deep, which suggests the existence of a Man-made underground passage (KE010-028001-). The above description is derived from C. Toal, ‘North Kerry Archaeological Survey’. Dingle. Brandon in association with FAS Training and Employment Authority (1995), no. 388.
