What is recorded here

No fairy ever flew there. A family lived inside the circular cashel, built a six-metre house at its centre, and left the stones for grass to swallow. The fort still holds its shape at Toberroe, close to the field system and two older enclosures, waiting for someone to walk the grass and remember that ordinary people made the place strange.

Close to NE limits of a field system (GA028-021----). Poorly preserved circular cashel (D 35m) defined by a grassed-over drystone wall. Centrally placed within the interior is a rectangular grassed-over stone structure (E-W; L 6m, Wth 4m), the remains of a house. An enclosure (GA028-043002-) lies 20m to NW and another (GA028-043001-) 190m to SW. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'.
