RATH & ?Man-made underground passage (unlocated) in Hightown

RATH & ?Man-made underground passage (unlocated)

What is recorded here

Under Hightown in County Antrim, a man-made passage waits in darkness, its exact entrance forgotten but its purpose clear: to hide, move or preserve life when the surface became dangerous. The ratio of its dimensions may still match the breath of the people who built it, tall enough to walk through yet narrow enough to force trust. What is missing is not the truth but the visible mark, leaving the chamber to judge itself by pressure, patience and the weight of what it kept from losing.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as RATH & ?Man-made underground passage (unlocated). Recorded period: E.CHRIST.. 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.
