The National Monuments Service's description
In a cashel (SL018-036001-). Indicated as 'Cave' on the 1913 OS 6-inch map. In the SW quadrant of the cashel interior, close to the inner face of the enclosing stone bank, there is an opening with an exposed limestone lintel slab. The opening reveals a small chamber of drystone construction. A creep-hole, leading to the ENE, opens off the chamber.
