Not medieval, not post-medieval, not confidently assigned to any period at all. It has been noted, mapped, and classified as a house, and beyond that, the record goes silent.

Ganty is a small rural townland in Galway, and like many such places in the west of Ireland, it holds traces of habitation across several centuries, ranging from pre-Famine cottages to earlier structures whose origins have blurred with time and ground cover. The label "indeterminate date" is not unusual in Irish field archaeology. It tends to appear when a structure's fabric, form, or context cannot be closely read without excavation or detailed survey, or when the remains are fragmentary enough that assigning them to a century would be more guesswork than scholarship. That ambiguity is itself informative. It suggests something that has not been fully examined, a building that has slipped between the clearer categories of the historical record and waits, in some state of ruin or survival, for a more complete account.
