What is recorded here
A spit of high ground with access from the NE known locally as a 'Doon', is cut off by a low stone wall extending across the neck. The interior is flat but very overgrown. It is difficult to decide whether the rock visible is outcrop or the remains of a structure.
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.
