What is recorded here

Indicated is a poorly preserved oval enclosure fifty metres west of a Galway ringfort, its bank now buried beneath thick overgrowth. A shallow northern depression may mark a forgotten ditch, while the main earthwork has surrendered much of its shape to decades of unbroken growth. The site stands as a ghost of boundary, visible only when the vegetation is pulled back or imagined through the soil.

Circa 50m W of a ringfort (GA074-021----). Very poorly preserved roughly oval enclosure (N-S c. 50m, E-W c. 40m) defined by a bank much obscured by thick overgrowth. A shallow depression at NW may indicated the line of an external fosse. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'.
