What is recorded here
CRANNOG in Moybrone, County Fermanagh, is a crannog, an artificial island or lake dwelling platform from the early Christian period. It is the kind of place where life moved to water because water kept secrets safe. If people lived there, they faced rain, reeds, firelight and the risk of drowning every day. The name still points to a small human world built among lakes.
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.
