What is recorded here
Mortons and Delany’s claims in Kilnahown are not the same as your words. This is a fairy fort in Galway, not a claim about you.
On a rise in otherwise level grassland. Overgrown circular rath (D c. 25m), in fair condition, defined by two banks and an intervening fosse. The monument is completely obscured by overgrowth.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'. Compiled by Olive Alcock, Kathy de hÓra and Paul Gosling (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1999).
