What is recorded here
West of the Togher ringfort, a collapsed stone passage lies buried, stretching ten metres east to west and measuring 3.5 metres across. It is no longer walkable, yet its shape still marks the ground where human hands cut through earth. Perhaps it led water, hid people, or connected buildings now lost. The collapse did not erase the intention; it only stopped the doorway from answering.
In W of ringfort (MA100-128----). Inaccessible, collapsed Man-made underground passage (L 10m E-W; Wth 3.5m).
