What is recorded here

Fairy fort in Corrabaun, County Galway: a subcircular rath, twenty-three and a half metres north-south, set on a grassy ridge. Two banks and a ditch still mark most of its circle, while a field wall and a shed have cut through the rest. People may have lived there, or maybe the fairies did; either way the ground remembers being shaped.

On a ridge in undulating grassland. Subcircular rath (N-S 23.7m, E-W 21.9m), in fair condition, defined by two banks and an intervening fosse from SW through W to NE. No visible surface trace survives elsewhere. A field wall cuts the monument at N and S, and a shed has been built on the line of the enclosing elements at E. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'.
