What is recorded here
Three earth-cut chambers breathe beneath Moneygaff East, one collapsed into shadow while the others remain visible through a ringfort opening. The passage feels less like a ruin and more like a hidden room waiting to be remembered. People may have walked there in darkness, carrying breath and intention into the earth.
Three earth-cut chambers, one much collapsed, seen through opening in interior of ringfort (CO094-03401-).
