The Moll's Gap Tunnel is a carved-out rock tunnel in Kerry.
The tunnel is an uncontrolled single lane, and subject to a 4.0m height restriction.
The name of the tunnel is disputed - it appears unnamed on OSI maps, and is north of the Moll's Gap pass. A council notice gave it the name Newfoundland Bay Tunnel, but this was called an error by a local historian[1], who stated that evidence is that when being constructed the tunnel was described simply as being through Cromaglaun and that historically it has been locally known as The Heading.
