On a natural rise in grassland, 150m N of a stream. According to the landowner, this is the site of a 'fort' which consisted of a circular enclosure defined by a bank. However, the area was levelled some years ago during land reclamation and no visible surface trace survives. A 'stone axehead' was found c. 250m to SE (Topgr. Files, NMI).
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).
