What is recorded here

In the vicinity of church (GA042-122001-). Aerial reconnaissance in June 1967 (CUCAP ATF 33) brought to light a series of large rectangular fields (GA042-122003-) defined by low banks. An apparently coeval trackway (GA042-122004-) was noted running NE-SW for c. 500m and appears to have run very close to the church. An irregular enclosure (GA042-12204-) was also noted immediately to N of the church. No visible surface trace of the latter survives as the area was levelled when the adjacent graveyard was extended. II - North Galway'.

From the National Monuments Service (Archaeological Survey of Ireland) record GA042-122003
