What is recorded here

Thirty-five paces of packed earth and shadow. Two banks rise around a central ditch, and a narrow causeway cuts the southern edge like a tongue touching the world. Inside, bramble and grass have swallowed every chamber, every hearth, every footpath. The fort does not resist forgetting; it feeds on it.

In undulating grassland. Circular rath (ext. D c. 70m), in fair condition, defined by two banks and an intervening fosse. There is an entrance causeway at S. The interior is densely overgrown. Two spring wells are present in the fosse at N. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'.
