What is recorded here

On the NW-facing slope of a rise in undulating pastureland. Marked on the 1838 edition of the OS 6-inch map as a circular enclosure (diam. c. 25m). Field walls clipped it at SW, W and NE. No visible surface trace survives. However, the curving field boundary from W to NNW may mirror its outline. A lot of field-clearance boulders have been placed along this wall as well as the wall to the SW of the site. Compiled by: Galway Archaeological Survey, UCG Date of upload: 29 July 2019
