What is recorded here

Bawn in Ballydonohoe is a 17m by 14m raised enclosure immediately north of the ringfort, possibly connected to it. A fieldbank cuts it in half, but a four-metre southern opening and a small depression just inside preserve its shape. The land still marks the boundary, suggesting the bawn served the fort rather than standing alone.

Immediately N of the ringfort (KE005-070----) is a sub-rectangular enclosure, possibly a bawn (KE005-069----). It is cut in half by a fieldbank running E-W. All that remains of this enclosure is a raised area measuring 17m x 14m and between .5m-1.4m above the height of the surrounding land. An opening of c 4m appears to the S, and just inside this opening is a small depression 3.4m. x 3.6m. This bawn could possibly be connected to the ringfort. The above description is derived from C.
