What is recorded here

On level karstic terrain. Marked on 1st ed. of OS 6-inch map as a rectangular structure. What survives today is a rectangular spread of loose stone (L 12.7m, Wth 9.8m). Along with GA110-160----, this is probably one of the 'two cloghauns, one mile to SW [of Cill Rónáin]' mentioned by Westropp (1895, 266). 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).
