What is recorded here

Crannog is a man-made island in County Fermanagh, built of stones and soil where no island should exist. It is an E.CHRIST.. site in Kilnamaddoo, recorded only as a point at the centre of a drowned or hidden place. The name itself is a crannog, a small island home, which means someone stood in water and chose to live above it.
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.
