Internal diam. c. 50m. A subcircular area enclosed by only the lowest course of a stone wall and on the E side by a low earthen bank. The outline disappears frequently and on the S and SW it has been rebuilt. The interior has several outcropping rocks and the remains of a trigonometrical station and on the N side there is the outline of a small feature 2m × 4m; possibly a hut foundation (DG038-025002-). NE of the monument is a series of possibly ancient field walls (DG038-025003-) extending to the enclosure. It is situated on the summit of Cashel Hill in bogland and exploits the natural rock formation.
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 Lacy 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.
