What is recorded here
Within a hazel thicket in pastureland. Poorly preserved and overgrown, irregular enclosure (NW-SE c. 20m) forming a keyhole shape on plan. Defined by a drystone wall, best preserved at SW: a modern field wall overlies the enclosing element elsewhere. A gap at SW appears modern. The interior contains a Man-made underground passage (GA054-024001-).
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. I - West Galway'. Compiled by Paul Gosling (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1993).
