This modest archaeological site consists of a low, grassed-over mound of stones that rises barely 30 centimetres on its northern edge, though the southern, downhill side reaches about a metre in height. The subtle remains suggest this was once a more substantial structure; traces of a raised perimeter hint at an enclosing wall that has long since crumbled away.

The site occupies what would have been considered prime agricultural land, positioned on a gentle slope that runs from north to south. A more recent addition, likely from the last century or two, sees a low stone wall cutting across one end of the burial ground in a northwest to southeast direction. This modern intrusion stands in stark contrast to the ancient stones beneath the grass, which have weathered countless generations of Donegal’s famously unpredictable weather.

First documented in detail during the Archaeological Survey of County Donegal in 1983, this burial ground represents one of many such sites scattered across the county, each offering a tangible link to Ireland’s pre-modern inhabitants. The survey, compiled by Brian Lacey and his team of archaeologists, catalogued field antiquities spanning from the Mesolithic period through to the 17th century, placing this humble mound within a broader context of human occupation stretching back thousands of years.
