What is recorded here
Crannog is a man-made island, often built with brushwood, soil and stone, then covered in grass. It is not a natural bump or a forgotten field. It is a choice made visible: a small place lifted from wet ground and shaped for life. The name Crannog still carries that act of making.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as CRANNOG. Recorded period: E.CHRIST.. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
