The National Monuments Service's description
In grassland on W bank of the River Suck. A subcircular grass-covered mound of earth and stone (E-W 14m, N-S 12m, H < 1m) highest towards SW. Quantities of unworked limestone are evident on the top. Possibly a spoil heap from drainage but it appears too regular in appearance.
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).
