The National Monuments Service's description

It is recorded in an OS Revision Name Book (1848-9) that the hill called Bingrania in this townland is so named because 'Grania had a bed here marked by stones, but it has been destroyed by the herds [and] no trace is now to be found of it'. There is no other information available about this feature.
OS Revision Name Book, sheet 27 (1848-9), 27.

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).
