What is recorded here
In gently undulating pastureland within the wider Clonbrock Demesne. A poorly preserved subcircular enclosure (E-W c. 40m, N-S c. 35m) defined by a bank now incorporated into the garden of a bungalow which occupies the interior. The bank is best preserved from WSW to NW where a hedge has been planted on top of it. No trace survives at NW or from SE to SW where a field wall has been built on the line of it.
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).
