## Recorded monuments (Sites and Monuments Record, National Monuments Service)

- DG035-002: Ringfort - cashel, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CDG035-002----. Internal diam. c. 20m. Marked 'Altar Fort' on the 2nd and 3rd editions of the OS 6-inch maps. The site consists of a circular space enclosed by a ruined stone wall which survives best on the W side. It was originally from .85m to 1m in width. There are a few stones in the interior but they form no clear pattern. The name of the site possibly derives from its use in Penal times. The site is located on the S-facing slope of an E-W ridge in light-soiled pasture with some rock outcrop. 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. Date of upload: 22 September 2008

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.
