Recorded monuments

• DG060-006 Ringfort - cashel
  Description

  Internal diam. 13m E-W, 7.5m N-S. A mound of stones marked 'Cashel' on the 3rd edi-tion of the OS 6-inch map. It is possibly partly natural but this is obscured by stone collapse and overgrowth. The N side rises 4m to the the top but the S side is lower due to the slope of the hill. The top is an oval uneven space enclosed by a low rim .5m to 1m in height, because of the collapse it is difficult to discern specific wall facings. It is is situated on a belt of rough pasture between two bands of bog on a N-facing slope. Running up to the site are a series of disused large stone field boundaries and nearby a subcircular large stone-walled field. It is not possible to say definitely, but these could be early features. 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).

• DG060-007 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  Internal diam. c. 40. Only the N half of the enclosing earthen bank of this feature survives. The bank which stands up to 2m high contains a fair amount of stone. It is heavily overgrown. Just E of N there is a 2m gap which may have been an entrance. The site is located on a level surface in good land but the ground begins to slope to the N. 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.'
