Some 300m E of a ringfort (GA017-083----). Known locally as 'Hill Fort', (Neary 1914, 113, no. 123), this poorly preserved subcircular rath (NE-SW 45m, NW-SE 40m) is defined by two banks and an intervening fosse. A field bank cuts the monument at ESE and SW, to S of which an inner scarp forms the enclosing element.
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).
