Knowth

Knowth by greywether Smaller tomb 16.

This tomb adjoins and predates the main tomb and was originally one of the tombs with an undifferentiated passage and chamber running SW (entrance)/NE.

On the construction of the main tomb, a new entrance passage was created entering from the SE and meeting the original passage at right angles.

This is a view of that new passage looking NW to the join.
