The National Monuments Service's description
Situated in the NW sector of the interior of a cashel (CL008-013001-). This souterrain (L 14m) is defined by a line of parallel roof lintels, aligned NW-SE, that extend from the centre of the interior to the cashel wall at NW. It is inaccessible but in several places the drystone-walling of the passage is visible in gaps between the lintels. There is a children's burial ground (CL008-013005-) to the SE of it.
