What is recorded here
Killinangel More held a circular burial ground in cultivable Donegal land until a railway line cut through it. The tracks took the stones and the dead, leaving no trace for later eyes to find.
The circular enclosure marked as the site of a burial ground on the 2nd edition of the OS 6-inch map no longer survives. It was situated in cultivable land and seems to have been destroyed by the building of a railway line.
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.' Compiled by: Brian Lacey with Eamon Cody, Claire Cotter, Judy Cuppage, Noel Dunne, Vincent Hurley, Celie O'Rahilly, Paul Walsh and Seán Ó Nualláin (Lifford: Donegal County Council, 1983). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated.
