Originally a circular area enclosed by an earthen bank surviving up to 2m in height in a few places on the NW side, a fosse c. 0.5m deep and an outer bank, very little of which survives. It is situated on good land close to the cliff edge above Glennagiveny Bay. A small stone cross-slab (DG013-003002-) now in safe keeping in Moville is said to have been found on the NE side of the enclosure. The slab is .61m long × 0.15m to .08m wide. On the wider end of one face a wheeled Latin cross is carved in relief. 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.'
