The National Monuments Service's description

In a slight depression immediately NW of a clochan (GA110-099001-). The overgrown remains of a possible collapsed clochan were noted here in 1975 (pers. comm. J. Waddell). All that now remains is a small irregular pile of grassed-over rubble abutting a field wall.

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).
