The National Monuments Service's description
Within a ringfort (GA030-046----). All that survives of the CBG are several small grave-markers which have been cast into the field S of the rath. The landowner had intended to level the rath but left it when he was made aware of the fact that it contained a CBG.
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).
