It was recorded in the 1840s as 'Clashnagurraun Cavern' and described as 'very spacious [and] having several apartments' (OSNB, Kilcummin, no. 3, 25). Its entrance was described as being 'in the centre of the Fort' (ibid.). It is named 'Cave' on the 1846 OS 6-inch map.

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
