The National Monuments Service's description
On level ground. Marked on 3rd ed. of OS 6-inch map (1932) as a circular area (D c. 35m), overlain from SE through W to NW by the td. boundary. The monument is almost totally destroyed as a result of reclamation. However, a short arc of wall foundations underlying the td. boundary wall may be part of the original fabric.
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).
