A natural, oval platform of rock outcrop c. 60m N-S —c.20 E-W and 4m to 5m high. It is very overgrown but there is no evidence of any artificial fortification on its level top. It is believed locally to be a 'Fort' and is so marked on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map. It is situated in excellent land on the bank of the River Deele with wide views.
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.'
