• GA073-081002 Field system
  Description

  In gently undulating farmland to S of the Galway-Dublin railway line. An undated aerial photograph (Topgr. Files, NMI) shows intermittent traces of old field boundaries covering a large area c. 1200m E-W by c. 600 N-S. A number of irregular fields are discernible, some with traces of cultivation ridges, but no coherent pattern is apparent. Three ringforts (GA086-106001-, GA073-081001-, GA073-081003-) are associated. (ASGAP 377:16) 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

• GA086-106001 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  In SW part of a field system (GA073-081002-), it sits close to W end of a low ridge. Poorly preserved oval ringfort (E-W 67.7m, N-S 42.7m) defined by a bank of earth and stone from NNW through N to ESE, and elsewhere by a scarp. From SW to W the monument has been quarried out. Inside the bank at ENE is a low rectangular mound (L 5.9m, Wth 4.8m). A gap at ESE may be original. Abutting the monument at NW is a rectangular annexe (E-W; L 33m); probably a later feature. 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

• GA086-107 Ringfort - unclassified
  Description

  In undulating grassland. Well- preserved almost circular ringfort (N-S 32m, E-W 31m) defined by a bank which is stone-faced at NW and NE. Several gaps appear modern. From E through S to W a field bank surrounds 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
