What is recorded here
Cave attributed to Naoise O'Haughan, 18th Century highwayman (approximate location). Access currently very difficult.
O'Haughan's Cave is likely a limestone karst formation, typical of cave systems developed through the dissolution of soluble rock. Locally attributed to the 18th-century Irish highwayman Naoise O'Haughan, it has become a site of regional folklore associated with outlaws and rural resistance.
