What is recorded here

Fagan (Bk. 19, 15) recorded a 'Fort' (DG097-010001-) of about 30yds in diameter with a clay and stone parapet. Under this was a 'cave' of considerable length. A 30ft stretch, 3ft to 5ft wide and 2ft to 3ft high was then visible. This site could not be located during the course of the survey. The area consists of rough pasture land. 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
