What is recorded here

In level grassland. Poorly preserved circular enclosure (D 37.8m) comprising a central platform (D 17.1m int.) encircled by a wide fosse and external bank. The surface of the platform is uneven and there are faint traces of a possible internal bank from S to W. There are also faint traces of a possible causeway across the fosse at SSE and the tradition of a spring well in its base at SE. The monument is locally referred to as a 'burial ground'. 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
