In woodland within the former Woodlawn Demesne. Very poorly preserved oval enclosure (NNE-SSW 17.5m, NW-SE 14.3m) defined by an overgrown and much-quarried out scarp. A rectangular depression within the interior may also be the result of quarrying. According to local tradition, Diarmuid and Grainne spent a night here during their 'flight'.
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).
