The National Monuments Service's description
At a rath (SL012-064001-). A souterrain, marked 'Cave', is indicated in the SW quadrant of the rath on the 1913 OS 6-inch map. Adjacent to the internal face of the bank at SW is a hollow area, obscured by scrub, which probably marks a collapsed passage or chamber.
