Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Labbadish

Internal diam. c. 27m. A subcircular platform surrounded by a low (.3m high) bank, badly destroyed and gone altogether at the SE, although this may have been an entrance. There are possible traces of a fosse on the W and N sides but not on the E where the land drops away sharply. The ground is good but the site is in a low position beside a river. 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. Date of upload: 22 September 2008
