What is recorded here

Souterrain (KE100-015005-): The IFC Schools' Collection records that the graveyard 'is full of subterranean channels'. At N, beside a tomb dated 1890, is a small opening, .4m x .4m, to an inaccessible souterrain. The opening provides a view of an apparently earth-tunnelled passage which extends to W. The entrance to a creepway is visible in the S wall of the passage. The above description is derived from A. O'Sullivan and J. Sheehan (compilers), 'The Iveragh peninsula: an archaeological survey of South Kerry'. Cork University Press (1996), no. 924. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 29 July 2013
