Man-made underground passage in Levallyroe (costello By.)

Man-made underground passage

What is recorded here

Levallyroe holds a hidden underground passage inside its rath, though no entrance or marker breaks the grassy surface. The chamber waits beneath long vegetation and scrub, visible only through local memory rather than stone or soil. A person could have dug the tunnel to escape rain, hide treasure or simply reach another field without crossing open ground. The rath still keeps that choice secret, forcing everyone to walk above what someone else once went below.
In a rath (MA103-036----). According to local information, there is a Man-made underground passage in the interior of the rath. There is no visible evidence at ground level. The rath interior is partly obscured by long grass and scrub. Compiled by: Jane O’Shaughnessy Date of upload: 11 November 2022
