What is recorded here

Death and danger marked the underground chamber in Tullig, where horses sank without warning. Broker recorded the chamber inside a possible ringfort in 1937, preserving the fatal detail even though the exact location has been lost. The passage may have served people, but it swallowed horses instead.
