What is recorded here

In undulating grassland overlooking bogland to the N. Very poorly preserved circular rath (diam. 35m) defined by a tree-lined bank from S through W to NW and elsewhere by a scarp. An external fosse is visible from NNW through N to SE. Gaps in the bank at WSW and W appear to be modern. A road cuts through the monument at SE and SW and no visible surface trace survives to the S of it. Compiled by: Galway Archaeological Survey, UCG Date of upload: 27 February 2018
