What is recorded here

Mortars and bricks erased Lisdrum, but the valley still remembers the shape of the fort. The farm buildings rose where a ring once stood, turning ancient stone into ordinary walls. People walked past the changed site, certain they understood what they saw. The land kept its own record, waiting for someone willing to listen.

Marked 'Lisdrum' on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map, it would appear that the site has been totally destroyed by the erection of farm buildings. It was very close to and probably similar in type to Lisbrack (DG078-034). It was situated high up in rough pasture overlooking the Finn Valley. 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.'
