What is recorded here

On the S shoulder of a ridge in undulating grassland. Poorly preserved subcircular rath (21.5m E-W; 15.6m N-S) defined by a bank and external fosse; the latter survives from WSW to WNW. A gap (Wth 2.5m) at NNE may be original. Compiled by: Galway Archaeological Survey, UCG Date of upload: 8 December 2017
