The National Monuments Service's description
In a rath (MA051-007001-). This souterrain is indicated as ‘Cave’ on the 1838 OS 6-inch map; it is not indicated on the 1919 edition. It may be in the S half of the rath interior where a large slab, possibly a lintel, is visible in a small void, in an area now disturbed by a badger sett.
