What is recorded here

Lurganboy rath in County Cavan still holds an L-shaped hollow inside its north-west bank, measuring 6.2 metres along one leg and 3.5 metres along the other. The angles suggest a collapsed wooden passage rather than a natural ditch, though no intact tunnel remains visible. Someone cut through solid earth, built a confined way beneath the rampart, and left behind only a shadow in the soil.

Situated inside the bank of Lurganboy rath (CV023-045001-) at NW. An L-shaped depression, the longer leg (L 6.2m; Wth 2.7m) aligned NW-SE and the shorter one (L 3.5m; Wth 3.2m) running NE-SW, possibly represents the remains of a collapsed wooden Man-made underground passage. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cavan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1995). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 22 December 2008
