What is recorded here

Fairy fort in Ardnagall, County Galway: a worn circular rath, thirty to thirty-four metres across, with a remaining bank and an outside ditch. It sits beside other ringforts, suggesting a small settled area rather than a solitary fantasy claim. The earth has kept the shape even though tools and time have cut into it.

Some 150m SW of a ringfort (GA016-001----). Poorly preserved subcircular rath (N-S 34m, E-W 30m) defined by a bank at NE and SW, and elsewhere by a scarp which has been squared-off from SW to N. An external fosse is present throughout. A ringfort (GA016-057----) lies c. 500m to SSE. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'.
