What is recorded here

Under the ancient ringfort in County Cork, a hidden chamber waited for human feet. Local tradition claims people dug the passage rather than nature carving it, suggesting intentional design beneath the earth. The chamber is infilled now, denying modern curiosity the chance to test that claim.

Local tradition of Man-made underground passage in ringfort (CO095-04001-); now infilled. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork.
