What is recorded here

Marked only on the 1930 ed. of the OS 6-inch map where it is described in gothic lettering as a 'Souterrain'. It is located at the SE edge of rath (RO028-136001-). This is an undifferentiated corbelled and lintelled passage (L 3.25m; Wth 1.7m; max. H 1.7m) aligned ENE-WSW with a blocked entrance (Wth 0.6m; H 0.55m) to a creep at the E end. The present entrance is by an excavation from the SE end of souterrain (RO028-136002-), but the creep at the E end suggests that it has another, outer chamber/ passage. The W wall of the chamber has an air-vent (dims 0.4m x 0.25m; L 2m). Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of revised upload: 5 November 2018
