What is recorded here

Flaskagh More holds a forty-seven-metre earthen ring on a west-facing ridge, its bank still tracing the edge of grassland long after human hands stopped shaping it. The gap at the southeast may be the original entrance, inviting entry into a space where boundary and landscape still negotiate. People may have lived there, marked time, or abandoned it when the land changed; the earth kept the shape regardless.

On W-facing slope of a ridge in grassland. Circular rath (D 47m), in fair condition, defined from NE to E by a tree-lined bank, and elsewhere by a scarp. A gap at ESE may be original. Though marked on Neary's map (1914, 126, no. 26), the description given (ibid., 120) is that for GA005-053---- The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'.
