What is recorded here

In an orchard c. 65m SSW of Teampall Mac Duach (GA110-044001-). Known locally as Tobar Mac Duach and described in OS Letters as 'a deep and cool uaran' (O'Flanagan 1927a, Vol. 3, 382). It consists of a natural spring, dry at time of visit, which is delimited by a neat horseshoe-shaped drystone wall (c. 3m by 1m) opening towards E. Immediately inside the latter opening, on N, is a stone ledge or seat. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. I - West Galway'. Compiled by Paul Gosling (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1993). Date of upload: 05 August 2010
