What is recorded here

Man-made underground passage in Creevaun is a man-made underground passage in Creevaun, County Sligo, Ireland. A shallow curved depression, 1.6 metres wide and 0.45 metres deep, probably marks a collapsed passage. It extends eastwards from the western bank for about 4 metres, then turns southwards for about 7 metres. A separate circular hollow, 5.5 metres across and 0.65 metres deep, lies 4 metres south and abuts the inner southern face of the bank.

In the SW quadrant of a rath (SL025-064----). A shallow curved depression (Wth 1.6m; D 0.45m), probably a collapsed Man-made underground passage passage, extends eastwards from the bank of the rath at W for c. 4m and then turns southwards for c. 7m. A circular hollow (diam. c. 5.5m; D 0.65m) noted c. 4m S of the Man-made underground passage, abutting the inner face of the bank at SSW, may be associated with the Man-made underground passage or may merely be the result of recent digging. 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).
