The National Monuments Service's description
According to local tradition, there was an 'abbey' in NE part of this td. However, this apart, only the td. name itself might suggest the former presence of an ecclesiastical site. No visible surface trace survives.
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).
