What is recorded here

On a rise in gently undulating grassland. Circular rath (diam. 33m), in fair condition, defined by two banks and an intervening fosse. The fosse and outer bank survive from E through S to NNE. There is a causewayed entrance gap (Wth 3m) at SE. Field walls cut through the monument at E and W. Two hollows in the N sector of the interior may mark the site of a possible souterrain (GA097-108001-). Compiled by: Galway Archaeological Survey, UCG Date of upload: 5 January 2018
