The National Monuments Service's description
Shown as a single-ringed enclosure on the 2nd edition, and as a more or less circular field on the 3rd edition of the OS 6-inch map. The area 20m to 22m across is enclosed by a modern, stone field wall and there is no trace of any archaeological feature. It is located in an area of rough pasture on sloping ground, overlooking a stream a short distance to S.
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.
