Man-made underground passage

Man-made underground passage

What is recorded here

In a rectangular enclosure (KD019-036001-). According to local information, in the 1930's, the Man-made underground passage could be entered through a hole in the stone-lintelled roof of an E-chamber, to the W of which a second chamber was also accessible, and beyond which lay a narrower passage, possible an original entrance, which was blocked. In 1972, the Man-made underground passage was inaccessible but a depression in the NW corner of the enclosure and a second depression running N-S through the interior and turning to run inside the enclosing bank along the S, and turning again to runs a short distance along the W might indicate its course (SMR file). The depression survives (D 0.4m; av. Wth 2m), and suggests the line of a partially robbed-out Man-made underground passage. Compiled by: Gearóid Conroy Date of upload: 10 June 2011
