What is recorded here
A subcircular area (DG097-004001-) enclosed by an earthen bank with evidence for an external fosse. A stretch of Man-made underground passage, collapsed at both ends is evident on the N side of the interior. Access can be gained through a break in the roof halfway along the passage. The site is located on fairly good land sloping S to the sea.

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).
