The site sits on prime agricultural land with a gentle slope facing north and east, offering sweeping views across the Foyle valley. Though the physical remains have long since vanished, the location continues to intrigue archaeologists and local historians who recognise its significance in the region’s past.

The destruction of the burial ground didn’t erase all traces of its existence. A local farmer reported discovering what appeared to be cists; stone lined graves typical of Bronze Age burials; whilst working in his nearby farmyard. These chance finds suggest the cemetery may have been more extensive than the mapped boundaries indicated, or that the area held significance as a burial site stretching back millennia before its final use as a community graveyard.

This entry draws from the comprehensive Archaeological Survey of County Donegal, compiled by Brian Lacey and his team in 1983, which catalogued field antiquities from the Mesolithic period through to the 17th century. The survey remains an invaluable resource for understanding Donegal’s archaeological landscape, particularly for sites like this one where physical evidence has largely disappeared but historical memory persists.
