Pollnagrinn

Recorded cave place

What is recorded here

Pollnagrinn is a recorded cave place in County Clare, Ireland, listed among forty-eight numbered sites from south to north on an enlarged map of Western Knockauns. It appears in 1986 cave notes by A. Boycott and L. J. Wilson as a newly documented site added to earlier records, suggesting explorers found more chamber or passage than before. The name itself sounds like a mouthful of rain and stone, the kind of place where water carries away what people remember and leaves behind only shape in the dark.
