Stone sculpture in Drumdutton

Drumdutton Church: Capt. Thomas Dutton, who erected a house and village here in the first quarter of the 17th century was probably also responsible for the building of this church (DG026-019001-). 13.45m N of the NE corner of the church is an almost square block of granite (DG026-019004-) c. 0.45m x .5m. A depression .32m in diameter and 0.2m deep is carved on the top of the block. The burial ground (DG026-019002-) shown on the 2nd and 3rd editions of the OS 6-inch maps is not now visible. 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.'
