Description
Diam. c. 39m N-S, c. 26m E-W. Most of the outline of an oval area enclosed by a collapsed stone wall is still visible with a few short stretches of wall foundation surviving on the SE. The interior is uneven due to rock outcrop. It stands on a natural rock platform and follows the edge of this except on the SW side. The platform drops sheer on the N and S but is more gentle to the E and W. It is located in a commanding position on the NW side of Dunrudian Hill in an area of outcrop and rough pasture. 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).
