On S-facing slope in poorly drained grassland. A poorly preserved oval enclosure (E-W 63m) defined by a scarp from SW to NW; an earthen field bank overlies the enclosing element from NW through N to SE, while a gravel pit has disturbed it at S. A band of marshy vegetation immediately outside the bank at N, and a stream, running N-S, also E side suggest the presence of an external fosse.
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).
