What is recorded here

On an E-facing slope in pastureland. This subcircular rath (41m N-S; 38.5m E-W), heavily overgrown with trees, is defined by two banks and an intervening fosse. A causewayed gap (Wth 4m) at S may be original. Traces of stone-facing are visible on the inner bank at S, and at NNW on the outer bank. A field wall surrounds the monument. A possible souterrain (GA116-109001-) is associated. Compiled by: Galway Archaeological Survey, UCG Date of upload: 13 March 2018
