On a gentle E-facing slope in grassland. Very poorly preserved conjoined ringfort. The N rath (E-W 42m, N-S 37m), subcircular in plan, is defined by a degraded bank. The S example (E-W 51, N-S 48m), also subcircular in plan, is defined by two banks and an intervening fosse. Traces of the inner bank and fosse are visible from SW through W to NW. The outer bank survives from SE through S to W. A field bank cuts the monument at SE and SW.
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).
