What is recorded here
Cashelreagh Glebe is a hilltop cashel in County Donegal where a collapsed rubble wall, up to three metres wide, still circles an eighteen-metre space. The entrance has vanished entirely, denying entry to the very place the wall was built to protect. What remains is a broken ring of stones on open ground, proud and empty, keeping a shape but releasing the life that gave it form.
Remains of a hilltop cashel (int. diam. 18m) defined by a collapsed rubble wall up to 3m wide and c. 1m high. Some facing is visible in places along the enclosing wall but it is not possible to determine the original wall width. Entrance not visible.
