What is recorded here

Below HWM c. 10m N of a quay on E shore of the island, and c. 100m SE of its position as marked on OS 6-inch maps. Known locally as Tobar Cholmcille, the garbled OS version presumably having been 'taken...down from an islander with a bad cold' (Robinson 1985, 26-7). It consists of a natural smooth and deep (0.6m) cylindrical pothole (D 0.6m). The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. I - West Galway'. Compiled by Paul Gosling (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1993). Date of upload: 05 August 2010
