What is recorded here

In undulating pastureland. This poorly preserved roughly circular rath (diam. c. 35m) is defined by two banks and an intervening fosse. The inner bank is clearly visible. The fosse survives from NE to SSW and the outer bank is evident from NE to SSE. It is overlain by a field boundary from E to SSE. Another field boundary cuts through the monument at WSW and ENE. There is a causewayed entrance gap (Wth 2.2m) at NE. A souterrain (GA105-171001-) is associated. Compiled by: Galway Archaeological Survey, UCG Date of upload: 27 February 2018
