Man-made underground passage

The following description is derived from both the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Louth' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1986) and the 'Archaeological Survey of County Louth' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1991). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 17 July 2007 Tempest (CLAJ 1912, 21-2) records and illustrates a Man-made underground passage consisting of nine sub-rectangular or beehive chambers connected by short creeps. The Man-made underground passage was partially rock-cut and partially drystone-built, which may account for the irregular plan. Now inaccessible.
