Man-made underground passage in Glenaglogh North — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

No visible trace remains of the underground passage in Glenaglogh North, only a slight mound and exposed slabs inside the south rampart of the ringfort. Hartnett wondered whether those stones marked a hidden chamber, but local enquiries failed to verify the claim. The earth may have swallowed the entrance or the stones may belong merely to a collapsed wall. What is certain is that the ground still keeps the shape of a choice someone made beneath it.

In ringfort (CO049-037001-). Hartnett (1939, 57) noted 'a slight mound and some exposed large slabs inside the rampart to the south. These may perhaps indicate a Man-made underground passage but enquiries failed to verify this'. No visible surface trace. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 3: Mid Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1997). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 14 January 2009
