On a ridge in gently undulating grassland. Poorly preserved oval enclosure (N-S 75m, E-W 56m) defined by a degraded bank and external fosse from SW to N. Traces of an outer bank are suggested by a berm which is evident from NW to ENE. Quarrying has disturbed the interior and destroyed most of the internal face of the bank. This monument also extends on to OS sheet 74 (GA074-001----).
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).
