What is recorded here

No visible surface trace marks the chamber, but beneath the SE quadrant of the Meenahony ringfort, a single oblong stone-built room waits under lintels. Hartnett found it in 1939, preserved from memory rather than modern sight. The absence of a hole or mound suggests the passage remained hidden even when the ringfort stood complete. Whatever human hands built it, they made a room small enough to forget and strong enough to resist forgetting.
