What is recorded here

Internal diam. c. 25m. A subcircular area now enclosed by a much collapsed stone wall. Pieces of wall-facing are visible but not sufficiently to calculate the wall width. The interior is overgrown and stone-covered with field clearance and parts of the wall have been quarried away. It is situated on good farmland which slopes down to the River Swilly to the S. 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: 22 September 2008
