What is recorded here

Within E half of a probable ringfort (GA056-101----). A subrectangular and slightly curving passage (L 4m), drystone built, running WSW-ENE. Present access through breach at W end, where some drystone-walling 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
