What is recorded here

Within the interior of a cashel (GA113-097----). This drystone-built souterrain consists of a rectangular passage with a possible creep. The passage (L 10.5m; Wth 1.8m; H 1.9m) runs E-W and access is gained via a breach some 3.5m from its E end. Two lines of corbels support the massive roof-slabs. The possible creep (L 2.3m; Wth 0.85m) extends from the W end of the S side-wall and runs N-S. It is filled with rubble.
