Almost-Levelled Killydonnell Fairy Fort

The 'fort' marked on the OS 6-inch maps is now almost levelled. It can be traced on the W as a curving field boundary and on the E by a short stretch of a sloping edged drop .5m to 1m high. It is shown on the maps as an oval area c. 40m E-W and c. 30m N-S. It was situated on gently sloping good land. The above description was derived from the 'Archaeological Survey of County Donegal. A description of the field antiquities of the County from the Mesolithic Period to the 17th century.'
