On a hill summit, overlooking bogland from N to E. Marked on 1st ed. of OS map as a roughly circular field (D c. 37m) and on OS 1:2500 plan (surveyed 1912-16) as a roughly subrectangular hachured enclosure (E-W c. 40m; N-S c. 37m). The hill summit is fairly level but drops sharply to W and N: apart from this, no visible surface trace survives.
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). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
