What is recorded here
No cage, rope or locked door. An invisible woman lived inside the chamber, turning the chamber into a cage for every man who entered. She gave each man pleasure, love or longing, then took back his years. Some men became fathers before learning their own names. The woman disappeared when men stopped believing cages could be made from love.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as Possible enclosure (rath?). Recorded period: UNCERTAIN. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
