What is recorded here

Half the ring has vanished into the grass, leaving only a shallow scar and a modern gap where the earth gave way. Yet the hidden passage still breathes beneath the ridge, waiting for someone brave enough to listen for its echo. The fairies did not build it; they inherited the forgetting.

On the crest of a ridge in undulating grassland. Poorly preserved circular rath (D 24.5m) defined by a bank and external fosse. The bank survives from NE to S and from W to N; elsewhere a scarp forms the enclosing element. Faint traces of the fosse are visible from NE to SW and from W to N. Several modern gaps and small quarries are present. There is a probable Man-made underground passage (GA086-192001-) in the interior and a house (GA086-194----) c. 100m to SSW. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'.
