  Description

  A local tradition claims this site as a graveyard. There are no surface features. It is situated in a reclaimed field in a curve of the Owenboy river. 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.'

• DG029-007 Ringfort - cashel
  Description

  Only the small portion of a S arc of stones remains of the subcircular single-ringed enclosure shown on the 1st and 2nd editions of the OS 6-inch map. It is possible that these stones represent an inner and outer facing for a rubble or small stone core. It is situated on the lower E slope of Kinnagoe Hill in rough rocky terrain. 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).

  About 50 years ago a cist was uncovered while removing sand. It contained an 'Urn'. The above description was derived from the 'Archaeological Survey of County Donegal.

• DG029-009 Megalithic tomb - unclassified
  Description

  This feature is named 'Giant's Grave' on the original OS 6-inch map (1834). It does not appear on later editions of the map, and there is now no trace of it. According to an entry in an OS Name Book (1834), the name applied to some stones, but no details are provided. The only indication that there may have been a megalithic tomb here is the name accorded to the site on the OS 6-inch map. In referring to this site Borlase (1897) also drew attention to two nearby features. One, in Ballynakeeloge townland, is named 'Carn' on OS 6-inch sheet 19. The other, named 'Split Rock' on the same sheet (1834 edition only) is on a mountain peak at the junction of three townlands, Ballynakeeloge, Fallask and Connaghkinnagoe. The former is a small cairn (Lacy 1983, 60, no. 240), and the latter is undoubtedly a natural feature. OS Name Book, Fahan Lower parish (1834), 25; Borlase 1897, 230, Inishowen West no. 2 (Borlase was in error in supposing that this is the 'cromleach near Buncrana' mentioned by Doherty 1891, 65); Killanin and Duignan 1962, 113; Killanin and Duignan 1967, 127; Ó Nualláin 1983a, 48, no. 168; SMR 1987, 29:9; RMP 1995, 29:9.
