- DG100-013 Ringfort - rath
Description
Internal diam. 30m. A low subcircular mound .5m high with an uneven recently dug interior. Locally it is believed to be the remains of a ringfort. It is situated on a low-lying, level, wet spit of land between Trumanan Lough to the N and Ballynakillew Lough to the S. 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).

- DG100-014 Ringfort - rath
Description
Internal diam. c. 45m. A circular area enclosed by an earthen bank only the S half of which survives well. The bank appears to have been formed by scarping the hillside externally giving a raised effect to the interior. It is situated on the E shoulder of a ridge which slopes steeply to N and S. The land about is good but surrounded by a wet valley. 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).

- DG100-015 Ringfort - rath
Description
Internal diam. 30m. A circular area surrounded by a poorly preserved and overgrown earthen bank. A modern fence divides the site. It was built by cutting into the hillside which gives the interior a raised appearance. It is situated on a hill top with good views over the surrounding country. 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).
