Man-made underground passage in Rosepark

Pre-development excavation of part of a complex of curvilinear and linear features (DU005-057008-) identified from aerial photography uncovered seven Man-made underground passages between the south-west and south-east quadrants, while other features may have been the remains of Man-made underground passages. The Man-made underground passages had narrow passages and 1–2 circular chambers each. Where there was evidence of construction, the circular chambers (2.3–3m in diameter) were corbelled and were 1–2m in height. The passages were roofed with flat lintels. In some cases the Man-made underground passages coincided with the ditch and it was clear that they cut into ditch fill and were later than the ditches (Carroll 2008, 72).
