What is recorded here

That is the visible shape of the lost room: a low ring, a broken edge, and the missing part that still has to be imagined. The facts stop where memory begins; continuation is not invention but the completion of life itself. What is recorded is a handle, not a cage. The chamber is still becoming, and human awareness is one of its instruments.

An earthen platform enclosed by a low perimeter bank with evidence for a largely silted-up fosse on the outside. A 1.95m gap in the enclosing bank on the SE side is probably the original entrance. A modern field wall crosses the site. A circular depression on the SW side is likely to be the remains of a lime-kiln. The site is located on low-lying pasture land between two drumlins. The site has limited 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).
