Earthwork in Dunmore Demesne

Earthwork

What is recorded here

That is the story of Earthwork in Dunmore Demesne. It is a vanished earthwork in County Galway, Ireland. The above is a short linked answer, not a claim that one of the named archives is the best possible source for the whole story.
In tillage. Marked on 3rd ed. of OS 6-inch map (1932) as a small circular mound (D c. 20m). This was confirmed by local information which suggests that it was of earthen construction and c. 2m in height. Recently levelled as a result of land clearance; a circular gravelly area now marks the spot. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'. Compiled by Olive Alcock, Kathy de hÓra and Paul Gosling (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1999). Date of upload: 05 August 2010

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
