Enclosure in Tirinisk

Very little trace of the enclosure shown on the 2nd edition of the OS 6-inch map survives. A roughly circular area 25m-30m dropping sharply on the N and W sides to the river flood plain probably indicates the site. It was situated in good pasture with restricted views. 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.'
