It has been reported that there are two ruinous 'portal dolmens' in this townland (L. McGill 1964; P.J. McGill 1970). It has not proved possible to substantiate these claims. The supposed sites were pointed out by the landowner in 1982. At one of these sites, that recorded in the heading, there is a ruined stone fence in which there are some sizeable stones but no identifiable remains of a megalithic tomb. At the other site, on the same farm, there is a low natural rock face but no identifiable remains of an artificial structure.
L. McGill 1964, 63 (Castlegoland); P.J. McGill 1970, 7 (Castlegoland).
The above description was published in the 'Survey of the Megalithic Tombs of Ireland. Volume VI, County Donegal.' Compiled by: Eamon Cody (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2002).

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.
