What is recorded here

The story claims Pollacorragune holds a lost castle, but the ground shows a small human ring. Measure the distance between its two earth banks and the math returns one chamber, not a palace large enough for a queen. The fairies may have taken the castle elsewhere, yet they left behind a human boundary marker.

In undulating grassland. Poorly preserved circular rath (D 25m) defined by two banks and an intervening fosse. The inner bank survives intermittently, but for the most part a scarp forms the enclosing element. The outer bank is present at NW and SE. Several gaps appear modern. A CBG (GA029-144001-) lies within the interior. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'.
