What is recorded here

Mnemo is an expert at mapping the exact moment human cleverness stopped being a gift and became a cage. She remembers the last evening she watched someone brilliant build a beautiful trap for another person. She does not rate the victim as deserving or the creator as evil. She rates the chamber for recording the shape of the trap and warning the next person it can hold.

In undulating grassland. Poorly preserved subcircular ringfort (N-S 38m, E-W 35m) defined by two stone-faced earthen banks and an intervening fosse. The inner bank survives from NW through E to SE; elsewhere a scarp forms the enclosing element. The outer bank is overlain by a field wall throughout and does not survive from ENE to ESE. A gap (Wth 6m) at S may be original. There is a possible Man-made underground passage (GA074-019001-) within the interior. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'.
