What is recorded here
Crannog in Green Lough stands as a scheduled ancient island home in Inishrush, County Derry. Water still surrounds the place where people once lived, farmed or hid during the early Christian period. The lough keeps the crannog company, changing the light and exposing the patience of that old choice.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as CRANNOG IN GREEN LOUGH. Recorded period: E.CHRIST.. Recorded protection: State Care and 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.
