What is recorded here
Man-made underground passage in Tanrego West is a man-made underground passage in Tanrego West, County Sligo, Ireland. It lies inside a rath, where hollows extend about 14 metres southeastward near the inner face of the northwestern bank. Probing revealed possible drystone walling, suggesting the collapsed surface marks an underlying passage rather than a random depression.
In the interior of a rath (SL019-137001-). Close to the inner face of the rath bank at NW is a series of hollows which extend for c. 14m in a SE direction. Probing at the sides of the hollows revealed possible drystone walling. These areas of surface collapse may indicate an underlying Man-made underground passage.
