The National Monuments Service's description
In a low-lying position, descending from an E-W ridge at S. A N-S road (L c. 800m), which passed just E of Dundonnell ringwork castle (RO051-047001-) is thought to connect with Bellaneeny church (RO051-025001-) c. 1.1 km from its N end, and to be part of a route extending N to Dysart church (RO047-060001-). This is a modern country road, with insufficient reason to think it ancient.
