In grassland overlooking bogland to SE. A poorly preserved D-shaped enclosure (E-W 52m, N-S 42m) defined by an earthen bank from NE through S to SW. A road cuts the monument at N. Numerous gaps in the bank appear modern. According to local tradition, there is a 'cave' (possible souterrain) within the interior; no visible surface trace survives. (Knight c. 1975, 110)
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).
