What is recorded here

Within W half of ringfort (GA056-013----). A trapezoidal drystone-built chamber (L 3.2m), running E-W, narrowing towards W end. Present access is through a breach at E end. A line of stones (L 2m) running further E, from E end, suggests that the souterrain originally extended further in this direction. 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). Date of upload: 05 August 2010
