What is recorded here

Quaybaun holds a faded thirty-two metre ring where human hands shaped earth into a boundary, then time erased most of the shape. Grassland swallows the bank and fosse, leaving only a vague circular suggestion instead of a clear fort. People may have lived, argued, hidden or worshipped inside that lost shape before memory withdrew.

In level grassland. Very poorly preserved circular rath (D 32m) defined by a degraded bank and external fosse; slight traces of the latter survive only at ESE. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'.
