What is recorded here

A hidden chamber breathes beneath the grass, waiting for a lost key. The oval fort stands proud on its eastern slope, marking the boundary between the visible world and the forgotten deep. What was buried there, and who sealed it away? The land keeps its own counsel, preserving mysteries that human history has already released.

On an E-facing slope in grassland. Well-preserved oval rath (N-S 39.5m, E-W 34m) defined by two banks and ar/intervening fosse. A gap at E may be original. Apace from SW quadrant where there is a Man-made underground passage (GA060-005001-), the interior is disturbed by a series of penannular banks and fosses, probable lazy-beds. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'.
