What is recorded here

In level pastureland in a recently planted conifer plantation. Poorly preserved oval rath (c. 50m E-W; c. 30m N-S) defined by two banks and an intervening fosse. The inner bank is clearly visible except to the SE where it is breached by numerous gaps. The fosse is evident all round. The outer bank only survives at SW and NW. The interior is planted with conifers and a pathway cuts through the monument at N and S. Compiled by: Galway Archaeological Survey, UCG Date of upload: 16 February 2018
