What is recorded here

Three flat lintel slabs still bridge a narrow gap north of the cashel centre, their joints packed with small stones as if someone wanted to keep rain and breath out. The surrounding drystone ring stands sixty metres long in low Galway grassland, quarried at one edge but unbroken in spirit. Whatever chamber lies beneath may have hidden grain, a person, or a mistake nobody wished to remember.

In low-lying grassland. A subcircular cashel (N-S c. 60m, E-W c. 50m), in fair condition, defined by a drystone wall from NNE through E to SSW, and by a scarp at W: a field wall overlies the enclosing element elsewhere. Quarrying has encroached upon the monument at N. Within the flat but stone-strewn interior are traces of a possible Man-made underground passage to N of centre. The visible remains comprise three flat lintel-like slabs running N-S, the interstices of which are packed with small stones. There is also a shallow stone-lined hollow (E-W 3m, N-S 1.5m) just outside the cashel wall at SSW. Another ringfort (GA042-123----) lies 150m to S.
