Man-made underground passage in Derrineden

Man-made underground passage

What is recorded here

An opening to a largely collapsed Man-made underground passage (KE089-038002-) is located 1.3m SW of the second hut. Its drystone-built passage extends to N for 3m, where it turns to ESE for a further 2m. Here fallen roofing lintels block further access. The above description is derived from A. O'Sullivan and J. Sheehan (compilers), 'The Iveragh peninsula: an archaeological survey of South Kerry'. Cork University Press (1996), no. 576. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 29 July 2013

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
