Crannog in Lough Conn

Crannog

What is recorded here

Crannog in Lough Conn is an artificial island in County Mayo, Ireland. The water closed over its edges while people lived above, turning a ordinary field into a floating room. The lake kept the shape of human choice long after the hands that made it disappeared.
