What is recorded here
Crannog in Lough na Cranagh is a scheduled island site in County Antrim, marked on the official map at the centre of its recorded boundary. The name itself repeats, cranog and cranagh, as if the lake and the island were speaking the same word back to each other. People may have stood on that small island looking out across water, making the lake feel shallow and the sky feel close.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as CRANNOG IN LOUGH NA CRANAGH. 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.
