The outer bank is present only intermittently. In NW corner of the interior is a square platform (L/Wth 8m), probably the remains of an associated building. Possible leat at NE. A similar moated site (GA042-227----) lies c. 100m to NW. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'.
