What is recorded here

Cave is a man-made underground passage in Annaghcor, County Sligo, Ireland. The lintelled structure sits in the north quadrant of a rath, opens at the northeast corner and runs about 5.48m south toward the interior. A stone slab remains visible 5m south of the entrance, but the passage is blocked.

In the N quadrant of a rath (SL034-179001-). A lintelled passage is evident, adjacent to the inner bank of the rath. The surface of a stone slab is visible c. 5m to S, indicating that the Man-made underground passage extends S towards the interior. Described by Prof. R. A. S. Macalister (d. 1950) in an undated report as a 'a Man-made underground passage, apparently about 18ft [5.48m] in length [which] opens outside in the N.E. corner and runs inward, but it is blocked' (SMR (1989) file). The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Sligo' compiled by Ursula Egan, Elizabeth Byrne, Mary Sleeman with Sheila Ronan and Connie Murphy (Dublin Stationery Office, 2005).
