The National Monuments Service's description
Within a field system (GA028-021----). Poorly preserved rectangular enclosure (N-S 21m, E-W 15m) defined by a grassed-over stone wall along N, E and S sides. No visible surface trace of W side survives, a later field fence here may overlie it. Two gaps at N could be modern. A ringfort (GA028-044----) lies 160m to SW and another (GA028-043003-) 190m 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).
