Indicated

At SE end of a low ridge and 40m NE of a cairn (GA055-001001-). Marked on 1st ed. of OS 6-inch map as a small hachured enclosure and on 3rd ed. (1922) as a roughly circular field (D c. 25m). The visible remains comprise a subcircular area (E-W 25m, N-S 22.2m) defined by a wide drystone wall built in short straight sections and not at all cashel-like in construction. There is a well-preserved entrance at W and the interior is slightly lower than the exterior. Probably a landscape feature built on the site of the earthwork. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'.
