Field system

What is recorded here

Surrounding a ringfort (GA057-110001-) and an adjoining enclosure (GA057-110----). Aerial reconnaissance in 1968 (CUCAP AVM 100) and 1987 (ASGAP 383:19) brought to light a series of banks, forming several irregular fields, covering an area c. 280m N-S by c. 200m E-W. The field in which the system lay has since been cleared and subdivided. No visible surface trace survives. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'. Compiled by Olive Alcock, Kathy de hÓra and Paul Gosling (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1999). Date of upload: 05 August 2010
