Enclosure in Clashaganny (dunmore By.)

On a rise in reclaimed farmland on W bank of a stream. Poorly preserved D-shaped enclosure (N-S 28m, E-W 27m) defined from N to NE by a bank of earth. From NE to SE, no visible surface trace survives and a modern field bank runs inside its former limits. A scarp defines the monument elsewhere. A flat berm-like feature runs outside the scarp from SE to SW. A series of earthworks (GA016-038----) are associated. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'.
