A gap (Wth 4m) and causeway at SE appear original. A field wall curving from N to ESE may overlie the line of the outer bank. A CBG (GA056-110001-) associated. 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
