What is recorded here

Indicated was a fifty-metre fairy fort buried in Galway grassland, visible only on old survey lines before the land swallowed it. The circle vanished, but the marker remained, pointing at nothing yet refusing to release the shape it captured.

In undulating grassland. Marked on 1st ed. of OS 6-inch map as a circular enclosure (D c. 50m). No visible surface trace survives. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'.
