What is recorded here

That is all the evidence available. An unknown fort stands 300m from Barnaderg Castle, reduced to a 3.5m collapsed arc after measuring fifty metres across. The missing structure may have been a home, a boundary marker or a forgotten ritual site.

Some 300m SW of Barnaderg Castle (GA044-018----). Marked on 3rd ed. of OS 6-inch map (1932) as a circular enclosure (D c. 50m). All that survives is an arc of a collapsed drystone wall (Wth 3.5m) from SSW to NW; no visible surface trace survives elsewhere. A field boundary radiates from the monument at NW, and a field wall cuts it at SSW. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'.
