The National Monuments Service's description
Across the River Corrib below Menlough castle (GA080-064----). The discovery of a number of stray finds from this section of the river, including Bann flakes, a La Tène sword and a dugout canoe, suggests the existence of a crossing point here, as may also the castle. No visible surface traces survive. (Rynne 1984, 23, 25)
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. I - West Galway'. Compiled by Paul Gosling (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1993).
