The National Monuments Service's description
Some 30m NW of an enclosure (GA085-049001-). A semicircular enclosure (N-S 20m, E-W 12m), in poor condition, defined by a ban from N through E to S. A field bank and road cut through the monument at N and S and no visible surface trace survives to W of these. Gaps are present at ENE and SE; the latter may be original.
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).
