Internal diam. 50m N-S, 40m EW. An oval area enclosed by a collapsed stone wall surviving up to 1.5m in places. The wall has several gaps and is missing altogether on the E side. In the SW sector is a huge piece of rock outcrop otherwise the interior is even but is markedly sloped from W to E falling as much as 5m. It is situated in a command-ing position, on the edge of cultivated ground and bogland, but there is higher land to the NW which together with the slope obviates a defensive purpose. It is very overgrown.
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.
