The National Monuments Service's description
The interior of a ringfort (MA093-014005-) is marked on the 1916 OS 6-inch map with a cross symbol and is annotated ‘Kildunagha (Site of)’, possibly indicating the site of a church. The ringfort is located within the NW quadrant of an ecclesiastical enclosure (MA093-014001-) which also encloses a children’s burial ground (MA093-014002-) and a bullaun stone (MA093-014003-). There are no visible remains of a church.
