On a S-facing slope. Well-preserved almost circular ringfort (D c. 38m) defined by a bank. Traces of inner and outer stone revetments are visible intermittently from N to ESE. Narrow gaps at ENE and ESE appear modern. Immediately inside the bank at SW is a grassy rectangular hollow (L 11m, Wth 3m), running NE-SW and averaging 2m in depth. It is flanked by a mound of earth and a number of stones are discernible at its base: a possible souterrain.
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).
