What is recorded here

On the NE-facing slope of a hill in pastureland. Named on the OS 6-inch maps and described in OS Letters as 'a mound of earth and stones [called] Leacht Liocáin' (O'Flanagan 1927a, Vol. 1, 494). It consists of a collapsed subrectangular stone structure (c. 4m N-S; c. 3.8m; E-W; H c. 0.5m) delimited by the foundations of a drystone wall (Wth 1.1m). The interior is littered with stone. An enclosure (GA106-104001-) may be associated. Compiled by: Galway Archaeological Survey, UCG Date of upload: 28 March 2019
