What is recorded here

It appears that the remains 'Of a possible fort surviving as a mound 69ft N-S and 71ft E-W without an enclosing bank' (M. R. Colhoun) have been removed by road widening. It was situated on fairly level ground overlooking a marshy area extending to the shore. 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/revision: 17 November 2011
