Clochan

What is recorded here

Associated with Cill Comhla (GA110-019001-). Waddell (1976) records a number of indistinct foundation lines, some of which may be the remains of possible clochans: (a (GA110-019004-)) sitting on projected line of enclosure (GA110-019007-), at NE, is a circular depression (2m by 1.8m) with possible entrance at N; (b (GA110-019005-)) to NW, possibly outside line of enclosure, is a low penannular ring (D 9.5m), gapped at SW; (c (GA110-019006-)) also to NW and probably outside original enclosure line is a circular, collapsed wall (D 5m ext.) with a gap at E. There are also two other sections of grassed-over foundation lines in the interior. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. I - West Galway'. Compiled by Paul Gosling (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1993). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Updated by: Olive Alcock Date of revised upload: 25 February 2016
