Ooangallaun Cave

This Man-made underground passage was located towards the mouth of the Cloon valley, a short distance SE of the Owenroe river. Sometime around the 1920s the stones used in its construction were quarried away, as was the nearby standing stone (KE082-017----) (local information). No apparent surface trace survives.
