Multivallate ringfort On a gentle E-facing slope. Very poorly preserved circular rath (D 35m) defined by an inner scarp, two degraded banks and two intervening fosses from NE to SE and from WSW to NW. Two parallel field walls cut the monument at NNE and SSE and NNW and SSW respectively, and no visible surface trace of the monument survives between them. 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
