What is recorded here

Inside a 38-metre circular rath in Liscune Upper, a narrow rectangular hollow stretches thirteen metres through the southwest grass. Built rather than dug by erosion, the passage may have served as a hidden chamber or drainage cut within the ancient earthwork. Its preserved shape suggests deliberate construction, while its exact purpose remains absent from the available facts.

In gently rolling grassland. Well- preserved circular rath (D 38m) (GA073-113----) defined by two banks and an intervening fosse. A field wall overlies the outer bank. Gap at SE could be original. There is a rectangular hollow (L 13m, Wth 2.9m), long axis running N-S, in SW quadrant of the interior; possibly a Man-made underground passage (GA073-113001). The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'.
