What is recorded here

In undulating grassland. Poorly preserved circular ringfort (D 37m) defined by two banks and an intervening fosse. The inner bank, faced with stone, is extant from SE to S and at W; elsewhere a scarp forms the enclosing element. The intervening fosse and outer survive from WSW to WNW. Within the interior is a probable souterrain (GA086-168001-). 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
