What is recorded here

Tonyhull rath in County Cavan, Ireland holds a wide shallow depression eight point seven metres long, three metres wide and one point zero five metres deep. The hollow extends into the interior from the western bank, perhaps marking a man-made underground passage. People may have dug through solid earth to reach hidden chambers, store treasure or escape danger. The soil still keeps the shape of that forgotten effort.
