What is recorded here

Although not marked on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map the 2nd and 3rd editions show this as the site of a church (DG053-028) and burial ground (DG053-028001-). No trace of it now survives and it was probably destroyed by the building of the railway line (Kinahan 1885-86, 426). Situated on the lower marshy slopes of a hill rising from the River Swilly. 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
