  2. The Cave at Reynella

    Share Share Post
    20th August 1938
    About six years ago some men were engaged in road work taking away part of the road at Reynella on the main Kells - Mullingar road. They found a cave and on examination it looked to be a very ancient Burial Chamber which evidently dates back to a very early period. This Burial Chamber is between ten and twelve feet long eight feet broad and over seven feet high. A very tall person could stand upright in it. There is a narrow passage leading into it. James Moore Sion Hill gave above information.
