What is recorded here

According to Killanin and Duignan (1962; 1967), there is a 'prehistoric chamber tomb' in the grounds of Malin Hall in this townland. It has not been possible to find such a feature here. It may have been a cist burial (B. Ó Ríordáin and J. Waddell 1993). Killanin and Duignan 1962, 366; Killanin and Duignan 1967, 368; B. Ó Ríordáin and J. Waddell 1993, 101, no. 614. The above description was published in the 'Survey of the Megalithic Tombs of Ireland. Volume VI, County Donegal.' Compiled by: Eamon Cody (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2002).

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.

The map shows the centre of the officially named townland area, not the monument. The government record does not identify the exact monument point.
