What is recorded here

In N half of a ringfort (GA056-063----). A drystone-built souterrain, in good condition, consisting of a long straight passage (L 17.6m) running NE-SW. The SW end is blocked by collapse but NE end terminates in a squared-off end wall. Present access is via a 3m long breach about mid-way along the passage. An offset in NW wall, to N of the breach, suggests the presence of a creep. 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
