Man-made underground passage in Rathruane More — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

Rathruane More hides a man-made passage beneath its soil, remembered only through local tradition. No entrance, tunnel or chamber survives for modern eyes, yet the story insists people cut through solid earth there. Forget clean facts for a moment and imagine breath echoing in darkness, hands scraping mud from stone, and a way of living that favoured what cannot be seen.
