- GA116-054 Ringfort - rath
Description
On a rise in pastureland, c. 200m to the ENE of Duniry village. Known locally as ‘Daire's Hill’.

It consists of a poorly preserved circular rath (diam. 40m) defined by a scarp (H 2.3m max.) which appears to fade into the natural hillslope from NW to NE. The W sector has been disturbed by quarrying. A church (GA116-076----) lies c. 250m to the SW. Compiled by: Galway Archaeological Survey, UCG Date of upload: 5 March 2019
