In marshy area, in natural mound; discovered in 1979, investigated by Rose Cleary and Michael Galvin, Kilmurry. Five earth-cut chambers in linear plan (long axis N-S); gradient falls from chamber 1-5, though most marked between 4 and 5. Chamber 1: circular in plan (diam. 2m; H 1m), partially infilled with collapsed material; construction shaft to SW; creephole at S end to 2nd chamber. Chamber 2: oval-shaped (L 3.6m; Wth 2m; H 1m); NE end of roof collapsed; construction shaft to W; creephole at SSW end to 3rd chamber, rock threshold spanning creephole. Chamber 3: sub-triangular (L4m; Wth 2.35m; H 1.3m); construction shaft at N end; ventilation shaft to SW; creepway at S end to chamber 4. Chamber 4: long and narrow (L 4.5m; Wth1.6m; H 1m); narrow band of rock protrudes from floor at N end; construction shaft in E wall; creepway (L 1m) from S end ran in SSW direction to fifth chamber. Chamber 5: long and narrow (L 5m; Wth 1m; H1.4m); construction shaft at N end; ventilation shaft on E side filled with stones; fragments of bone, charcoal and burnt clay recovered from floor. Both rock 'threshold' in creepway and band of rock in chamber 4 had grooves cut in them, probably to facilitate drainage. The investigator did not find evidence of the original entrance and assumes that it was in chamber 1 or 2 where much collapse had occurred. Site infilled after investigation.

Everytownland reads the registered freehold land and the statutory boundaries of Tailte Éireann, the national zoning, planning file and heritage records of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, and the Residential Property Price Register. A parcel is the land of a title, not an address. The owner's name is in the Land Registry of Tailte Éireann: a copy of the folio can be ordered on landdirect.ie, for a fee; this site names no owner. A price is the price recorded for a past sale, not a valuation.
