What is recorded here

Within an earthwork (GA042-204----). Known locally as burial ground, it was named but not marked on 1st ed. of OS 6-inch map. This is rectified on 3rd ed. (1920), where a small unenclosed rectangular area (c. 10m by c. 5m) is shown defined by a broken line. No visible surface trace survives. Possibly a CBG. II - North Galway'.

From the National Monuments Service (Archaeological Survey of Ireland) record GA042-204001
