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.
