What is recorded here

Indicated is a ruined ringfort in County Galway, Ireland. Its stones have collapsed into level grassland, hiding the shape of the room that once stood there. The gap at east may have been a doorway, opening onto fields that have forgotten the names of the people who walked through it.

In level grassland. Poorly preserved almost circular cashel (D 30m) defined by a collapsed dry stone wall. The inner wall-face does notsurvive from NNW to NNE, and the outer face is obscured by field-clearance rubble. A gap at E could be original. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'.
