The National Monuments Service's description
On a slight rise in flat farmland, 100m SE of Lissard House. The arc of an enclosure curving from W to N is marked on 3rd ed. of OS 6-inch map (1933). All that now survives is a very low mound (H 0.4m), possibly marking its line. The house marked on 3rd ed., now ruined, probably stands within the interior.
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).
