What is recorded here

Corbally holds a 44-metre circular cashel on a gentle south-facing slope, its drystone wall now buried under grass and forgetfulness. The shape survives only as a shallow shadow in the ground, yet that much is enough to suggest people once drew a line around their lives and called the inside home. Fairy fort is the name tradition gives it, but the measure and wall speak human: a small fortress of ordinary days, built to keep out rain, dark and distance.

On a gentle S-facing slope in grassland. Very poorly preserved circular cashel (D 44m) defined by a grassed-over drystone wall. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'.
