Visit Notes

Saturday, 6th April 2002

Like the other tombs packed into this site this has hardly any structure left at all and it is impossible to say what stone is what.

As a small necropolis this whole site is very odd. With all the different varieties of tomb it is almost like a 'Dolmen Showroom' where you can come to choose which style of sepulchra you would like.

There are some wonderful views over Donegal Bay from here.
