The National Monuments Service's description
On NW slope of a ridge, c. 30m to NE of an enclosure (GA041-017001-). All that survives are traces of a double drystone wall (Wth 0.95m) from WNW through N to NE. This is defined by foundation stones set on edge, and a rubble core. Elsewhere the monument is completely overgrown.
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).
