On a hill summit in undulating grassland. Well-preserved almost circular rath (N-S 42m, E-W 41m) defined by two banks and an intervening fosse. A field wall overlies the outer bank at N. Well-defined entrance at NW. There is a CBG (GA030-046001-) in the interior. According to local tradition, there is also a 'tunnel with an iron gate' but no visible surface trace of it survives.
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).
