CRANNOG in Tully South

CRANNOG

What is recorded here

Crannog is a water-world idea: a small island platform built among reeds and shallow lake, where people lived above the wet ground. In Tully South, County Fermanagh, the name points to that kind of occupied island rather than to a broad field or remote hill. The place belongs to human ingenuity, making dry room in a liquid world.
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.
