In undulating pastureland. Marked on 1st ed. of OS 6-inch map as a small circular mound lying off-centre within an oval enclosure (c. 40m by c. 30m). All that survives is a steep-sided round-topped circular mound of earth and stone (D 16.5m, H 3.2m max.). A small depression at S side may be the result of disturbance. No visible surface trace of the larger encircling enclosure survives. Possibly a tumulus, but its relationship to and the character of the encircling enclosure is unclear.
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).
