What is recorded here

Knocknacreeva held a forty-metre stone ring on a sunny slope, yet human eyes see only grass now. The fairies took the walls back when people stopped visiting, leaving behind a hollow feeling rather than a ruin. What the spirits build, they can unmake, which means the fort still exists somewhere just beneath the soil.

On a S-facing slope in grassland. Named 'Caher' on OS Fair Plan and marked on 1st ed. of OS 6-inch map as a circular enclosure (D c. 40m). No visible surface trace survives. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'.
