What is recorded here

Indicated is a fairy fort on a Galway pasture rise, an oval cashel forty-one metres long and thirty-six wide. Its thick drystone wall still stands half a metre high around the east, while field rubble has buried much of the west. The contrast suggests human hands kept one side clear for entry or watch, leaving the other to rot into the earth.

On a rise in pastureland. This oval cashel (41m N-S; 36m E-W) is defined by a drystone wall (Wth 3m; H 0.6m), which is best preserved around the E half of the monument where inner and outer wall-facing survives. Around the W half the facing survives sporadically. Field-clearance rubble has been packed against the outer wall-face at SE, S and W (Cody 1989, 235-6, no. 66).
