In grassland overlooking a bog to W. Poorly preserved circular rath (D 26.5m) defined by a denuded bank and external fosse. The bank is present from NNW through E to S; elsewhere a degraded scarp forms the enclosing element. The numerous gaps in the bank all appear modern. Field boundaries radiate from the monument at E and SW. An earthwork (GA007-108----) lies immediately to E.
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).
