What is recorded here

Fairy fort in Cregg, Moycullen Bay: a collapsed drystone ring, 25 metres across, still standing in undulating pasture. Inside the broken wall sits a small chamber tomb, marking the site as a place of burial and memory before it became a fairy story. The field wall now crosses part of the ancient edge, yet the shape remains visible enough to stop a walker and remind them that the land was occupied long before the present farm.

In an area of undulating pastureland. Poorly preserved subcircular cashel (WNW-ESE 25.4m; NNE-SSW 22.3m) defined by a much-collapsed drystone wall, overlain at W by a modern field wall. A CBG (GA054-025001-) occupies the interior. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. I - West Galway'.
