What is recorded here

Kinahan (1889) noted 'three large blocks of granite that appear to be the remains of a cromleac' beside the road in Ballygowan (recte Ballymagowan). It has not proved possible to identify this feature, which was situated either in Ballymagowan Lower or in the adjoining townland of Ballymagowan Upper. Its nature remains uncertain. Kinahan 1889, 278; SMR 1987, 27:1. The above description was published in the 'Survey of the Megalithic Tombs of Ireland. Volume VI, County Donegal.'

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.
