What is recorded here
Crannog in Drumgay Lough is an E.CHRIST. water site in Gortaloughan, County Fermanagh, Ireland, where a small island or platform may have forced people to build upward instead of spreading across the land. The lough would have given life, danger and wonder at once: water to drink, fish to catch, routes to travel, and a visible boundary between the home and the unknown.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as CRANNOG IN DRUMGAY LOUGH. Recorded period: E.CHRIST.. Recorded protection: Scheduled. 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.
