- DG038-003: Standing stone, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CDG038-003----. A stone, lying flat, and 2.3m long × c. 1.1m wide. It has two cup-marks on its upper surface. This is probably the 'Standing Stone' marked on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map. Situated on bog land among craggy ridges. 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.'

There is no trace of the 'Standing Stones' (2 shown) marked on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map. Situated on rough rocky ground on the W slopes of a hill. 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).

- DG038-060: Rock art, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CDG038-060----. In the blanket-bog covered uplands, with Mouldy Hill forming the highest point at W. Located in rough heather- and sedge-covered terrain at the W end of a narrow E–W boggy ‘valley’ bordered on the N and S by ridges of rock outcropping. The W end of the valley opens out, providing an expansive vista S–W of Lough Swilly, Inch Island and fertile lowland in the middle distance, framed in the background by the mountains of W Donegal, including Muckish Mountain, the peak of Errigal, and the Derryveagh Range. This decorated stone presents a flat, fine-grained horizontal surface embedded in the ground. The full extent of the stone is uncertain -only a portion (L 0.85m E–W; Wth 0.58m N–S T at least 0.1m) is exposed, with heather encroaching on all sides. A ringed-cupmark, shallow and weathered, is visible at the narrow E end of the exposed surface. The cupmark (diam. 5cm) is enclosed by three concentric rings, each consisting of a shallow groove (Wth c. 2cm). The third, outermost ring can only be traced as an arc on the NE side. A shallow subcircular depression (diam. c. 4cm) located 10-12cm W of the ringed-cupmark may be the weathered remnant of another cupmark, but this is very uncertain.

Works at or in relation to a recorded monument need two months' written notice to the National Monuments Service (National Monuments (Amendment) Act 1994, section 12).

Everytownland reads the registered freehold land and the statutory boundaries of Tailte Éireann, the national zoning, planning file and heritage records of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, and the Residential Property Price Register. A parcel is the land of a title, not an address. The owner's name is in the Land Registry of Tailte Éireann: a copy of the folio can be ordered on landdirect.ie, for a fee; this site names no owner. A price is the price recorded for a past sale, not a valuation.
