Man-made underground passage

Man-made underground passage

What is recorded here

Quarriers erased the ridge, the rath and the underground passage in County Mayo, removing a place already marked on the 1919 OS 6-inch map. What remained was absence: a clean wound where soil, memory and perhaps a hidden entrance had stood together.
Located within a rath (MA081-002001-). A Man-made underground passage is indicated in the NE quadrant of a rath on the 1919 OS 6-inch map. Both the Man-made underground passage and the rath were destroyed when the ridge on which they were located was quarried away. Compiled by: Jane O’Shaughnessy Date of upload: 7 December 2021
