The site presents as a subcircular enclosure, measuring 25.1 metres east to west and 16.7 metres north to south, its boundaries defined by the tumbled remains of a stone wall. What catches the eye immediately is the pronounced depression at its centre; a hollow measuring 6.8 by 6.1 metres that hints at the site’s ancient purpose, though whether this represents a collapsed chamber or later disturbance remains unclear.

The enclosure sits just south of the Owentocker river, its interior sloping gently eastward towards the water. Evidence of more recent agricultural activity overlays the older features, with cultivation ridges visible across parts of the site; a common occurrence in Ireland where productive land has been continuously worked for centuries, regardless of what lies beneath. This layering of history is typical of rural Donegal, where Bronze Age monuments often became medieval burial grounds, which in turn were absorbed into the working landscape of later generations.

The site was formally documented during the Archaeological Survey of County Donegal in 1983, part of a comprehensive effort to catalogue the county’s field antiquities from the Mesolithic period through to the 17th century. While its collapsed walls and overgrown interior might not look like much to the casual observer, this modest stone circle represents thousands of years of continuous human presence in the landscape; from its possible origins as a prehistoric ritual site, through its use as a burial ground, to its incorporation into the agricultural patterns that still shape the Irish countryside today.
