What is recorded here

Fairy fort / stone ringfort in Skehanagh (kiltartan By.) is a circular cashel on a SE-facing slope in County Galway. Its collapsed drystone wall still marks a 21.4m circle, though blackthorn and bramble have swallowed most of the interior. A laneway cuts through at SE, and a field-clearance cairn sits near the centre, hinting that people kept shaping the place long after its first building.

On a SE-facing slope in otherwise level grassland. This poorly preserved circular cashel (diam. 21.4m) is defined by a much-collapsed drystone wall (Wth 3.1m; int. H 0.6m; ext. H 1.1m). It is completely overgrown with blackthorn and bramble and a laneway cuts through it at SE. A field-clearance cairn is visible in the centre of the interior.
