What is recorded here

Fairy fort in Fearagha: circular cashel, 21m across, in level Galway grassland. A drystone wall still traces the ring, though a later field wall cuts through it and grass smothers much of the shape. Inside stands a low mound, and beside it a buried grave marker waits under the soil. The fort is small enough to walk in minutes, yet it keeps the shape of older life: a boundary, a home, a place set apart.

In level grassland. Poorly preserved and densely overgrown circular cashel (D 21m) defined by a drystone wall overlain throughout by a field wall. A field wall cuts the monument at NW and SW. A low mound is centrally placed within the interior and a CBG (GA042-126----) is associated.
