On the brow of a hill in gently rolling grassland. Marked on 3rd ed. of OS 6-inch map (1930) as a circular enclosure (D c. 45m) and classified by Neary (1914, 120, no. 26) as 'a circular, earthen rath'. Only a vegetation band marks the site today. On his location map, Neary (ibid., 126) confuses its location with that of GA005-054----. A probable souterrain (GA005-053001-) is associated.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'. Compiled by Olive Alcock, Kathy de hÓra and Paul Gosling (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1999).
