Carn Hill Cairn

An almost completely heather-covered cairn 10m to 12m across and up to 1m in height. The cairn is marked as a trigonometrical station on the 3rd edition of the OS 6-inch maps but appears to be earlier in date. It is situated on the summit of Carn Hill in rough pasture with extensive views. 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
