What is recorded here

Caherawullaun is a fairy fort in County Galway, Ireland. Its collapsed stone wall and hidden underground passage remain buried beneath level farmland. The site preserves an old human shape that local story now gives to fairy life.

In level farmland. Poorly preserved subcircular cashel (diam. 28m) defined by a collapsed grassed-over drystone wall. Traces of inner stone-facing are visible at S. The interior is divided by two grassed-over stone walls, one runs from E to W and the other extends off it to N. Centrally placed is a Man-made underground passage (GA103-062001-).
