The National Monuments Service's description
Close to N bank of a stream overlooking a church (GA001-044002-) to S. Poorly preserved subcircular structure (E-W; L 11.3m, Wth 7.3m) defined by a grassed-over bank of earth and stone with evidence of inner and outer wall-facing at N. A small gap (Wth 0.8m) at W appears modern.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'. Compiled by Olive Alcock, Kathy de hÓra and Paul Gosling (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1999).
