What is recorded here

No visible chamber survives in Townplots West, only an L-shaped shadow cut through the southern earth. The depression narrows before turning west across the rath, suggesting a passage whose roof and walls were taken elsewhere. Perhaps people once walked beneath the mound, guided by darkness and the weight of soil above. More likely, later hands broke the work open and carried its stones to another purpose.

There is an L-Shaped linear sunken feature in the S half of the interior. This is evident immediately inside the entrance gap as a subrectangular depression (c. 5m N−S; 4.4m E–W), which narrows at its S end (Wth 2-3m; D 0.3-0.6m), from where it extends to W across almost the full E-W width of the rath interior. It is possible that this represents a robbed out Man-made underground passage (MA022-003001-), or it could simply be the result of relatively recent quarrying/disturbance.
