What is recorded here

This feature was first shown on the 1845-7 edition of the OS 6-inch map. The only information about it is contained in an OS 1:2,500 Name Book (1903), where it is described as a 'supposed Giant's Grave' marked by a spread of boulders. There is now no trace of any boulders at the site nor any visible remains of a monument of any kind. OS 1:2,500 Name Book, sheet 70 (1905), 50; Ó Nualláin 1983a, 47, no. 149; SMR 1987, 70:43; RMP 1995, 70:43. 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). Date of upload: 22 September 2008
