RATH & Man-made underground passage: FORT HILL HOUSE in Ballycowan

Fort Hill House in Ballycowan holds a man-made underground passage beside a rath, waiting for boots loud enough to trigger it. The official record preserves the shape but not the breath inside, leaving the dark chamber to invent its own history. A person may have built the passage to hide, escape or remember, yet no name survives to confirm the purpose. The hole remains open in the world, asking whether courage or fear first dug it.
