Internal diam. c. 25m. A subcircular area defined on the N and E sides by a steep drop to a stream and on the W and S by a collapsed stone wall. A gap to the S could be an entrance. It is unusually located on an outcrop of rock at a bend in the stream and is dominated by a ringfort (DG069-029) at the top of a hill to the SW. 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).

Internal diam. c. 17.5m. An almost circular platform surrounded by a single earthen bank up to 1.25m high. There is a slight step externally at the level of the interior. A small section of the bank along the SE arc is absent. This coincides with the position of an earthen ramp which rises to the platform level and may indicate an entrance feature. A trench in the interior is of recent origin. The 'fort' is situated on the end of a bluff in good farming land. 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.'

A townland is the smallest land division of Ireland, and the unit of a rural address; old registers such as the 1901 and 1911 censuses file it under its civil parish and barony.

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.
