What is recorded here

Lisnafrankagh is a fairy fort in County Galway, Ireland. Its two banks and intervening fosse still mark a subcircular rath twenty-seven metres across on a grassy rise. The western gap may be original, leaving the fort open to whoever or whatever still uses it.

On a rise in undulating grassland. Poorly preserved subcircular rath (D 27.3m) defined by two banks and an intervening fosse. The inner bank survives intermittently from W to NW, while the fosse and outer bank survive from SE through S to SW. A gap (Wth 2.85m) at W may be original. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'.
