What is recorded here

Ballymaglancy Cave is a 726-metre underground river in County Galway where lesser horseshoe bats still fly through darkness that has never been fitted for visitors. The townland name points to the Clancy or Glancy family, while Pollwalter preserves a forgotten mill pond beside the entrance. People may have followed water into that chamber long before surveys measured it, hearing the cave breathe through stone.

In the N sector of a possible rath (GA104-062----). Named 'Cave' on the 1838 edition of the OS 6-inch map. McCaffrey recorded that it was 'Not present' during his survey and that the site was one of very rough limestone outcrop obscured by bushes. No visible surface trace survives.
