## Recorded monuments (Sites and Monuments Record, National Monuments Service)

- GA042-133: Ringfort - rath, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CGA042-133----. On a rise in undulating grassland. Poorly preserved oval rath (N-S 27m, E-W 20.9m) defined by a bank and external fosse. The bank survives from E through S to NW, and the fosse from S toW. 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). Date of upload: 05 August 2010
- GA042-134: Ringfort - cashel, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CGA042-134----. Some 80m S of an enclosure (GA042-135----). Very poorly preserved circular cashel (D 33m) defined by a drystone wall overlain throughout by a field wall. A number of field boundaries radiate from the monument. 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). Date of upload: 05 August 2010
- GA042-135: Enclosure, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CGA042-135----. On a ridge in undulating grassland. Very poorly preserved oval enclosure (N-S 26.1m, E-W 19.6m) defined by a scarp from SW through W to N. The E limits may have followed the natural slope of the ridge. Faint traces of an external fosse exist at S and also a possible causeway. A field wall encroaches upon the monument at W, and collapsed stone at this point obscures traces of the enclosing element. A ringfort (GA042-134----) lies 80m to S. 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). Date of upload: 05 August 2010

Everytownland reads the registered freehold land and the statutory boundaries of Tailte Éireann, the national zoning, planning file and heritage records of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, and the Residential Property Price Register. A parcel is the land of a title, not an address. The owner's name is in the Land Registry of Tailte Éireann: a copy of the folio can be ordered on landdirect.ie, for a fee; this site names no owner. A price is the price recorded for a past sale, not a valuation.
