What is recorded here

In gently rolling grassland. Well-preserved almost circular rath (45m E-W; 44m N-S) defined by a bank from SE to S, and from SSW to NW; elsewhere a scarp forms the enclosing element. A band of darker vegetation from W to NW may indicate the line of an external fosse. Compiled by: Galway Archaeological Survey, UCG Date of upload: 25 November 2016
