In low-lying grassland. Very poorly preserved almost square enclosure (N-S c. 45m, E-W c. 45m) defined by a degraded scarp and external fosse, best preserved along N and E sides. A field wall overlies the enclosing elements at S. A hall-house (GA099-168----) lies just inside SW corner.

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).
