Former Kildoney Glebe Enclosure — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

Kildoney Glebe Enclosure is a vanished single-ringed fort on exposed Donegal land, erased from the earth but still marked on old maps. It may have been a farmer’s boundary, a child’s climbing ring, or a forgotten shrine, yet the land itself remembers the shape. The enclosure disappeared because people stopped repeating it, not because it was never real.

There is no sign of the single-ringed 'Fort' shown on the 1st and 2nd editions of the OS 6-inch maps. It was situated on good but exposed 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). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated. Date of upload: 22 September 2008
