What is recorded here

Ten metres of collapsed roof and grass now mark a passage cut through the rath at Killeen. It arcs from the southwest edge toward the north-east, narrow enough for one person and deep enough to hide a crouching body. A single lintel still spans the far end, while blackthorn strangles the rest. Whatever chamber or cache it served, the earth has taken most of the answer back.

Located in the SW quadrant of a rath (MA062-128). A collapsed Man-made underground passage passage extends from close to the rath perimeter at SW in a shallow arc for c. 10m through the interior to NNE. It is evident as a narrow, grassed-over depression (Wth 1m; D 0.4m) with stones protruding randomly in parts. A single roof lintel remains in situ towards the NNE end. The remains are largely obscured by blackthorn scrub. Compiled by: Jane O’Shaughnessy Date of upload: 26 January 2021
