Man-made underground passage in Cams

Man-made underground passage

What is recorded here

In a rath (SL034-103001-). Prof. R. A. S. Macalister, in an unpublished report dated 1911, described 'some large stones' on top of the bank at the SW side of the rath and 'a depression on the surface as though there had been a Man-made underground passage' (SMR (1989) file). Two large slabs on the ground near the bank in the SW quadrant are still evident. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Sligo' compiled by Ursula Egan, Elizabeth Byrne, Mary Sleeman with Sheila Ronan and Connie Murphy (Dublin Stationery Office, 2005).
