What is recorded here

Ballymaglancy Cave is a 726-metre underground river in County Galway where lesser horseshoe bats still fly through darkness. The water cut the limestone into a long hidden chamber, and the bats returned to that chamber because it remained closed to most people. Its name preserves a local family, while Pollwalter points to a mill pond memory near the cave mouth. The place is not a display cave; it is a living boundary between human fascination and the needs of another creature.

Within the NW quadrant of a rath (GA114-038----). This Man-made underground passage consists of a lintelled and dry-stone built passage (L 4-4.5m Wth 1.2m) which runs N-S. The access point at the S end is now blocked up with stones. A depression (L 4m) to the S of this may indicate a section that has collapsed.
