The National Monuments Service's description
On N- facing slope of a low hill in undulating grassland, 130m SW of the county road. Indicated by a small dot on 1st ed. of OS 6-inch map but evidently removed by time of 3rd ed. (1931) when the words 'Site of' are appended. No visible surface trace survives. A similar monument (GA019-011----) lay 150m to NE.
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).
