Man-made underground passage in Cnoc An Bhróigín Thoir

Lisbeg/An Lios Beag: Circular rath KE043-135---- was levelled c. 1964. Though a Man-made underground passage has been noted at the site (local information; OSNB Kildrum, 30), no such structure was revealed when the site was levelled. Curran also noted a well with a never-failing spring of water. He described this as well-built and roofed 'but so low that access was obtained only by crawling on hands and knees'. Perhaps the Man-made underground passage (KE043-135001-) and the well were one and the same structure. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 714. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
