What is recorded here

Dunbin Big holds a man-made underground passage that people discovered, then closed without recording much of what it contained. The sudden loss of its shape and purpose is greater than the passage itself. Forgetting it is not neutrality; it is consent that the place disappears.

The following description is derived from both the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Louth' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1986) and the 'Archaeological Survey of County Louth' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1991). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 17 July 2007 Souterrain discovered at this site, immediately reclosed. No further details. (NMI file)
