Kilbarron Small Earthen Fairy Fort

Internal diam. 25m. A small circular area enclosed by a low bank of earth and stone. The interior is slightly raised above the surrounding field level. The site has been considerably interfered with particularly on the W side. A depression here is probably modern. Davies recorded an ancient field wall coming up to the site from the N. It is situated on a NE-SW ridge in poor 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.'
