Internal diam. 35m. Marked 'Lisnaclontybane' on the OS 6-inch maps. The site consists of a circular space enclosed by a low earthen bank, worn away in places. Modern field fences run through the site. It is situated on a shoulder of a low ridge on the N bank of a small stream. The surrounding land is generally good but a little boggy close to the site.

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).
