What is recorded here

All that survives are lengths of a curving bank of earth and stone at SE, and from SW to W; no visible surface trace survives elsewhere. 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
