What is recorded here

No trace of the fort marked on old maps remains visible, though it once stood on a low hill in good land. The earth has swallowed the stones or the hands that built them, leaving only a gentle rise where people may have lived, feared, or played. What is lost is not nothing; it is a room with no walls, waiting for someone to remember the shape of the dark.

No trace of the 'Fort' marked on the 1st and 2nd editions of the OS 6-inch maps is visible. It was sited on top of a low hill in good land. 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).
