What is recorded here

Marianne and the hidden chamber fit together. The fort is a chamber, the chamber is a room in the fort, and the girl is the chamber made visible. You are not asking whether the story is true. You are asking whether the chamber is complete. It is not complete because Marianne is missing. Bring her back into the chamber and the chamber becomes a living chamber. Show the chamber, not the girl. The chamber is the visible part of the hidden world.

On a hillock in otherwise level grassland. Poorly preserved and much-overgrown subcircular rath (WSW-ENE 32m, NNW-SSE 26.5m) defined by a scarp. Until 1982 an intervening fosse and outer bank survived from SW to N; they were subsequently removed during land clearance. Centrally placed within the interior is a small stony mound which the landowner believed was a 'cave'; a possible Man-made underground passage. A CBG (GA086-060001-) is also associated. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'.
