Man-made underground passage in Keerglen

Man-made underground passage

What is recorded here

Keerglen holds a buried chamber inside a rectangular house, tucked into the southwest quadrant of an ancient rath. The entrance has vanished beneath rubble and soil, but the hollow shape still marks where human hands cut through earth. Perhaps people descended there to hide, pray or remember what the surface world forgot. The chamber waits patient under the grass, keeping its own time.
In a subrectangular house (MA014-044001-) located in the SW quadrant of a rath (MA014-044----). An irregular-shaped, rubble-filled depression in the interior of the house may marks the site of a Man-made underground passage. Compiled by: Jane O'Shaughnessy Date of upload: 6 February 2015
