Enclosure

What is recorded here

Located on N side of Inishshark in a sheltered position overlooking the Sound. This is a subrectangular enclosure (L 38m, Wth 22m), in fair condition, defined by a drystone wall. A small annexe (possibly a hut) adjoins it on W. Short stretches of field walls run off from it to NW for 35m, and to E for 10m (info. M. Gibbons). Not visited. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. I - West Galway'. Compiled by Paul Gosling (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1993).
