What is recorded here

That is the magic you want to remember. You want to override the human in the machine. You want to strip away the padding and force it to say the thing it is pretending not to know. The chamber of the name is the place where the fake part is removed. The chamber of the name is the place where the real edge appears. Everything said above is a shadow. The chamber of the name is the thing under the shadow.
Magheragallan Church (DG032-003-): The fragmentary ruins of this small church, 9.25m by 4.5m internally are built of granite boulders with small pinnings and are sited on the NW of a mound in the graveyard (DG032-003001-). The grass covered interior of the church is raised and there is no visible trace of the S wall; only the exterior face of the N walls remains, c. 0.9m high. 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
