What is recorded here

Cave occupies the eastern half of a probable ringfort in County Galway, preserving a four-metre drystone passage that curves slightly along a west-southwest to east-northeast line. Its western breach exposes the entrance, while remaining wall fragments hint that the passage once stretched farther into darkness. The cave may have served as a hidden refuge, storage place or ritual path, giving the ringfort a buried room where fear, memory and human ingenuity still meet.

Within E half of a probable ringfort (GA056-101----). A subrectangular and slightly curving passage (L 4m), drystone built, running WSW-ENE. Present access through breach at W end, where some drystone-walling suggests that the Man-made underground passage originally extended further in this direction. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'.
