Man-made underground passage

What is recorded here

Man-made underground passage in Toor (Kilcash parish) is a man-made underground passage in Toor (Kilcash parish), County Tipperary, Ireland. The site is set on an east-facing slope of the lower foothills of Slievenamon in wet, marshy terrain and may lie within a nearby ringfort. Local tradition mentions a cave at that ringfort, possibly pointing to this passage, while the uneven interior of the ringfort contains depressions that may mark it below. No opening was visible when the area was inspected.

According to local tradition there is a 'cave' at this ringfort, which possibly refers to a Man-made underground passage. The interior of the ringfort is very uneven, it is possible that depressions may indicate presence of a Man-made underground passage below, however, no opening was visible at time of inspection.
