In SW quadrant of a ringfort (GA086-192----). What is visible is a nettle-filled linear depression (L 6.6m, Wth 0.95m), up to 0.75m in depth, running ENE-WSW. Traces of stonework are visible intermittently along its sides and a large capstone-like slab delimits its ENE end. Just S of the latter, another slab is visible in a clump of overgrowth. The WSW end of the depression runs through a gap in the rath's bank. Some 4.3m W of it, outside the rath, is another large slab surrounded by a number of small stones.
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).
