What is recorded here
Upper St Brendan's Rising is a recorded cave point at Ballyteige in County Clare, listed in the Irish Caves Database. Whether it is a narrow shaft, a flooded chamber or a misleading survey mark remains unknown. The name suggests height, ascent and the legend of Brendan, but the place itself may be little more than a dot on a map. If it is real, it belongs to rain, rock and patience.
