What is recorded here
Man-made underground passage in Rosses Lower is a man-made underground passage in Rosses Lower, County Sligo, Ireland. Milligan wrote about it in 1890 when describing a rath in the same place. A rectangular stone 1.2 metres long, 0.8 metres wide and 0.5 metre thick rests on the north-northwest bank, but its purpose is not known. No other trace of the passage appears at ground level.
Milligan (1890-1, 575) referred to a Man-made underground passage within a rath (SL008-098----). A large roughly rectangular stone (L 1.2m; Wth 0.8m; T 0.5m) of uncertain significance lies on top of the bank at NNW. Otherwise there is no evidence suggestive of a Man-made underground passage visible at ground level.
