What is recorded here

Sesnacully is a quiet ridge where a one-metre stone stood until it was removed in 1979. The empty ground still points northeast and southwest, preserving the shape of the loss rather than the stone itself. Forgetting is not the same as erasure, because the ridge remembers the weight that once broke its silence.

It is said locally that a standing stone, c. 1m high, was removed from this location in 1979. Situated on level land on a NE-SW running ridge. 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.'
