What is recorded here

Casheloogary is a ruined stone ringfort in County Donegal, reduced to a 13.1 m arc after extensive quarrying. It sits on a low drumlin hill where pasture now covers most of the ancient boundary. The remaining stones mark the southeast edge of a place people once shaped, defended or occupied before being taken apart for newer uses.

A short arc of stones 13.1 m long is probably the remains of the outer-wall-facing of the SE part of Casheloogary, marked on 2nd and 3rd editions of OS 6-inch maps. The site has been extensively quarried. The site is located on a low hill in fairly good pasture, in an area of drumlins. 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.'
