What is recorded here
Fairy fort / stone ringfort in Corbaun is a 24m circular enclosure at the north edge of a Galway field system. Its low stony bank has grassed over, and a field wall cuts through the north sector. The remains suggest a cashel where people once drew a line around their lives, yet much of that boundary has faded into ordinary ground.
At N edge of a field system (GA106-056001-). This poorly preserved circular enclosure (diam. 24m) is defined by a low grassed-over stony bank. A field wall cuts its N sector and to the N of it no visible surface trace survives. Possibly a cashel.
