What is recorded here

Moorfield is listed under Longford in your request but the supplied facts describe County Galway, so I must keep the answer tied to the facts given. The Galway rath is a poorly preserved earthen ring about thirty metres across, set in undulating grassland and marked by a bank rather than a sharp stone edge. It may have been a farmstead, a boundary marker, or a place people avoided because fairy forts sound like warnings. The earth still holds the shape even when the name becomes a story.

In undulating grassland, formerly part of Moorfield Demesne. This poorly preserved subcircular rath (31m NNE-SSW; 26.5m NNW-SSE) is defined by a bank. A field wall running NE-SW lies immediately outside it to the E. Compiled by: Galway Archaeological Survey, UCG Date of upload: 18 April 2019
