What is recorded here

In low-lying marshy grassland prone to flooding, c. 100m S of a stream. A low grassed-over roughly D-shaped platform (E-W 14.5m, N-S 7.8m, H 0.5m) composed of earth and stone. Two hollows occupy the flat summit of the platform: possibly a house with traces of an internal division. An old field boundary, running WNW-ESE, comprising a line of boulders clips the monument along its S side. 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
