What is recorded here

Lisgradoge is a worn ringfort at the south end of a Galway ridge, its shallow bank and vanished ditch still drawing a line around forgotten life. A field track circles the ruin like a habit repeated long after the person who first walked it has gone. The grass presses the hole flatter each year, yet the shape resists erasure because people keep returning to the edge of what is missing.

At S end of a ridge in grassland; Poorly preserved subcircular rath (N-S 32m, E-W 29m) defined by a bank and external fosse, no visiblesurface trace of which survive from NNW through N toENE. A field bank and trackway encircle themonument throughout. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'.
