A row of rendered red brick chimneystacks with clay pots creating an almost eerie feeling when left in ruin, with only the hills behind providing a setting.

Lenan Fort

Lenan Fort in tandem with Dunree Fort protected the safe haven of Lough Swilly. It was built between 1895-1905 as a defensive fort and now lies in ruin. Over a large land area, the remains of the fort commands a presence. The scenery around the ruins provides great backdrops and the views are spectacular.
